I just turned 29. No doubt about it. I calculated my age, 2007 minus 1978 using the calculator to be really sure, coz when people ask my age, I tend to be stuck on age 26 for some reason. Life gets a new perspective at my age and whenever a year would pass, I am haunted by the idea that sooner, my age will be out of the calendar already. I was wondering how my birthday would turn out, and now that it's over, I can say that I had one of the best birthdays ever.
At 12:13am today, I got a text greeting from my former student in La Salle and I was touched and surprised. The text read "How can I forget your birthday, eh your class was the one thing I looked forward to during my ccs days." I soon found out that my former student is doing well and she is graduating this week. My heart leaped for joy. Talk about throwing a starfish. During the day, I got wonderful greetings from dear friends and it felt really good to be remembered. I was surprised that my store employees also texted me their greetings and they even chipped in to give me a birthday cake. I was really touched by that gesture. :) To end the day, we just had a simple dinner of my favorite dishes with parents (no cooking or baking for me) and of course, lots of fun and giggles from Trixie who gave me the best birthday gift ever- a long nice sleep with no fussing or crying!
I officially end my birthday with a thankful heart for a most meaningful day and a truly blessed life from God. I am surrounded by dear family and friends. I have Brandon forever and my little Trixie who is truly a reward from God. :)
