:~: February 17, 2008 - A different kind of birthday party.

Lemme see. Ooo! Yesterday evening was my (now) 13 year old friend's semi-formal birthday party.(I had to wear a DRESS! lol It was a pretty purple one I borrowed from my big sis.:P) But this wasn't an ordinary 13th birthday party. It was a party/dedication. The father of my friend  presented her with a ring. It symbolized several things. Her mom and dad dedicated her life to Christ. It was really touching and sweet. Almost everybody cried and when I looked at my friends I felt like I was gonna cry. They were all sniffling and misty eyed. But I didn't QUITE cry. lol. After the dedication we all got to eat again (we had eaten before it too. :P) and then we were just kinda sitting there talking for a while. All the "little girls" (ages 4-8) were behind us playing "ring-around-the-rosies". So I said to my friends the "big girls" (ages 10- 16 [16 being ME. lol]) "I haven't played ring-around-the-rosies since I was, like, 5. Let's play it!" They were all like "I don't think so". So I said "Whatever! Sit here if ya like. I"m gonna play ring-around-the-rosies." So I did. I'd only played one game of it when the rest of my friends (minus 3. Party poopers! lol) joined in too. The circle got so big we had to split it into three. One inside the iother with each one smaller then the first. We musta played at least 12-13 games of ring-around-the-rosies,  laughing like crazy the whole time, and I ,personally, have to say that that was when I had the most fun. :) Yeah. It's fun pretending to be little again. I don't know how "big girls" can stand not getting up and playing with all the "little girls". I can't. :P The second most fun was when we all got up and danced with each other. Except the boys at the party. (most of them were about 10-11) They didn't play ring-around-the-rosies either. :P (and they asked me "aren't you too old to be playing that?" My answer: "NEVER!") Anyhoo. We all danced with each other. Switched partners every few minutes. :) All together we made up about 16-17 girls. :P I danced most with my friend GodsGirl. (I've noticed that all my friends are younger then me. The oldest is 14. It's more fun that way. They don't make me feel like I have to act my age. :P) And I got to dance with THE MOST HANDSOME boy at the party. Which would be my little 5yo brother Caleb. Isn't he HANDSOME? I think so. But he needs more practice dancing. He kept stepping on my feet and he had shoes and I didn't. If I had been wearing my shoes (which I ttok off as often as possible. Can't STAND wearing them for long) I would have been TOWERING over him. Seeing how I was wearing 2 inch heels. (which is too tall for me. I wear completely flat converse normally. :P) Caleb kept saying he didn't want to dance anymore, but when I asked him if he wanted to stop he said "Well, no. not really, Sam." He truly DOES like to dance. He just didn't like all the girls smiling at him cause he was. :) Wooow. That came out longer then I planned. Hope you read it all! Go you if you did. :P Sami P.s. When I get one I'll put up a picture of the outfit I wore. Momma wants to take one. She didn't at the party :P
