Birthday Reflections

Hey Guys!!

My apologies for it being so long since my last post.  The semester has gotten crazy.  My parents came and visited me 2 weekends ago and then I came home this past weekend.  Throughout that time I have been sick, with what turns out to be Bronchitis.  Anyway, all of that has combined to cause a delay in a new blog post.

Yesterday was my Birthday.  I love birthdays.  They are like a person's special holiday; a day all about them and celebrating their life.  This being said, it was so exciting to me that I was able to work out my Thanksgiving Break trip home to begin last Saturday so that I could be here for my Birthday.

The day began (leading up through midnight) with a viewing of the episode of I Love Lucy in which Lucy has a birthday.  You may remember the "Friends of the Friendless" or that this is the episode that Ricky gives Lucy the theme song of the show as a present; the only time lyrics accompany that joyful melody.

Anyway, the rest of the day was packed spending time with friends and family.  We went to Outback Monday night with a group of 13 people.  My email was constantly receiving notifications from Facebook filled with Birthday wishes from friends.  I got texts and calls all day.  I really began to think about the awesome people that I have in my life.  I am so blessed.  If you are reading this blog, you are one of those people!  You have no idea how happy and honored I am that you are a part of my life.

This has been an amazing year, full of growth inside of me.  It's crazy that I have completed my first year of adulthood and am now 19 years old.  Time is flying.  I am so excited for what this year has in store and so glad you are a part of it!

Thank you for making this birthday so happy!
