"It's been awhile"

The Staind concert on friday was awesome:) They did all my favorite songs and the crowd was amazing. I even got one of the drumsticks after the show:)

The weekend was spent at my mom's house, out in the woods, in the middle of nowhere. Quiet and peaceful with a lot of charm. And we brought our dog along who had the time of his life running around outside without a leash on.
They baked me a cake, since they woulden't be able to be with me on my birthday. I love them, presious family.

And today....today I'm 23 years old. Yes, it's my birthday:) So this evening dad's side of the family will gather at his house to celebrate me. Wow, that makes me sound special:) Anyway, we are having sushi, one of my favorite things in the world. (Kitty's sushi, helgesens gt. is best).

I used to think birthday's weren't that special, but now I know better. It is most definately a time to celebrate. It is marking the day the Lord decided was the right time for you to come into this world, to be part of his creation, to be part of him. And that is very special, if you ask me.
And it's a day were you get some extra attention. And we all need some of that.

Thank you, Father, for letting me be part of your plan. I'm exited too see more of it as I get older.
