My lifegroup pulled a fast one on me tonight.  They totally caught me off-guard with a little birthday surprise party.  There was cake and ice cream, of course.  But since I’m not keen on the sweets they went in another direction for me:

Yes, those are chickens with candles burning in place of a birthday cake.  Good call, Christie!  Kevin was incredible as the host of a fun trivia game.  Is it weird that a 3 year old scored more points in the game than most of us adults?  I laughed heartily tonight, and loved every minute of our time together, even if I was lousy at the trivia game.

Thanks, my fabulous lifegroup, for the card, the gift cards, the chicken-cake, but most especially for the love.  I say it all the time–Wednesday night is a highlight of my week because I get to spend time with you.  Thank you for speaking into my life and being part of my family.

Here’s a little snippet from my Bible reading today:  O Lord, make me to know my end and what is the measure of my days; let me know how fleeting I am!…And now, O Lord, for what do I wait?  My hope is in you.  Psalm 39.  Do you think that the Lord organizes the LifeJournal reading plan around people’s birthdays?
