Last weekend was a busy one for our family. Saturday was my birthday so we celebrated that & Valentine's Day together (it happens every year). My sister's family came to visit for the 1st time & got to see what life is like for us in LA. In the midst of all that we had a "Dinner & A Movie" night at church on Valentine's day. We had about 140 people attend & had a great night together eating, fellowshiping, & watching a movie. It was a good outreach event for our church.
Cade had his 1st Valentine's Day, but he didn't seem to notice it being any different than any other day. He did get his 1st Valentine in the mail from Erin's parents. Below is a 3-picture progression of his response. He also got a singing bear that he's not so sure about, he just looks at it funny as the ears wiggle.
I discovered this year a few more people who share the same birthday as me. Two other young men in our church are cupid babies like me. One of them was at the dinner & movie so his wife & Erin ordered a cake so everyone could celebrate. It was the biggest birthday party I've ever had (even though it wasn't really a party for me). My mom came to town on Monday & stayed a couple of days. She brought Cade's valentine gift & he will enjoy the new clothes & blow up toy real soon. (Sorry no pics mom, but we took them w/ your camera).
A prayer of humility and desire.
