Sorry for this belated post. It's actually written on the 19th.
I don't feel that I'm fair to you readers if you don't get a post on my birthday although I do feel a little odd, doing it for myself.
Well, I'm 15 now. (Since the 17th). I had a wonderful birthday to say the least. In the morning, we went to the biannual Rummage Sale at the church across the street. We always enjoy going there and finding all sorts of cheap goodies. I enjoyed having it on my birthday. After cleaning up some of our goods, we carried on our regular day.
In the late afternoon, we started cleaning up the house and making supper. We had invited Janice and Nacho, Grandma and Grandpa, and Eric and Anna. During our supper making process, Linda came in and gave me a bar of homeade soap and the book
A Chance to Die, the Biography and Legacy of Amy Carmichael, by Elizabeth Elliot. I am really looking forward to reading it.
We had roast beef, mashed potatoes, corn, canned beets, and coleslaw for supper. YUM!! Anna is the cake decorator around here, so Mama asked her to make my cake. She did a wonderful job. I was happy.
Janice gave me the book
Me? A Home Missionary? by Nichole Hiebert, a birthday record book, and some decorations. As for Mama and Daddy, they let me order a
violin for my birthday. I am very excited about it since playing a violin has been my dream for quite a long time.

Here's some news for today. We got a new table today. We also got the news today that Denny Kenaston has only a little time left to live due to a fast growing brain tumour. Your prayers would be very much appreciated. And to those of you who know them, Nicholas and Judy have a little boy since Monday.

Yesenia,
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! May the Lord Jesus continue to bless and mold you as you serve your sweet family. He is using that preparation at home as a beautiful foundation in your life and Lord willing, future family. Keep looking to Him alone!
