we celebrated by eating at red lobster a couple days early. then the whole family ate dinner at adelphia’s as a treat by my parents. after shopping that night, i got my loving presents from zem and perze who still manages to surprise me, as well as a sweet present from my sister stephanie. sunday night, the youth, rogie/lheila dropped by to spend my birthday over for dinner and friendly’s ice cream cake.

i just want to praise God for another year, for his unconditional love, and esp. the beautiful blessings he showers me through my family, my friends, my church…He is good and his love endures forever.

i also want to thank my parents, my family, my friends who left comments, called, videos, greetings, and my devoted husband and daughter who continue to make life so joyful.
