Birthday Moments Countdown

Well, today was my birthday. It felt like just another day, nothing special. I am now 28 years of age and physically I feel 40 yet soulfully I feel 18 still. I have had an interesting life but after 28 years I feel very blessed. God has definitely had His hand in my life and I am thankful for all He has done.

On to the purpose of this post . . . Since it is my birthday I thought Id do a countdown of my 5 favorite birthday moments.

5. 22nd Birthday - One of my friends found out that I used to love Scooby Doo, so they decided to get me alot of Scooby Doo stuff. Scooby Doo Monopoly, playing cards, stickers, a magnet, and a stuffed Scooby Doo. I opened it all at Sonnys with everyone that wasnt with our group looking at me like I was an idiot.

4. 17th Birthday - I played baseball and for some reason the only Wednesday game we played all of high school fell on my 17th birthday and it was in Gainesville. We left school early and got home around 10:30 that night. When I got home it was just me, my family and my best friend in high school. It was a crazy day but it was fun and a good birthday. By the way we lost, bad.

3. Today - My stepson made me a card that said Happy Birthday and I love you with a truck drawn on it. He said he wouldve drawn a Corvette on it but he only knows how to draw trucks. It was really sweet - made me cry.

2. 19th Birthday - A very rough time in my life after some things happened in our church, all my friends came over and hung out almost all night. It was alot of fun and I loved it. It was a good time. We had about 25 people packed into our living room.

1. 5th Birthday - I got a puppy for my birthday and I was really excited, until he wouldnt stop barking at me and my friends and I hit him on the head with a hammer. Yes, a real hammer, right on top of the head. He didnt bark the rest of the day. Just hid.

Year after year passes but memories will still be there.
