I had a very happy 40th Birthday. Sam and Macy stayed up with me and counted down until midnight July 11th! We ate ice-cream with magic shell! They each made me very sweet cards. The boys gave me some flavored Kit-Kats before they left- Sweet Bean Paste, Cheesecake, Cherry Blossom Green Tea, and Strawberry Flavored! Hank had one of our sweet friends make a delicious Chocolate Kahlua Cake for me. We went out for a Chinese dinner and then had cake and Rocky Road Ice-cream. Hank gave me a funny card with a promise to take me to the first Zac Brown concert we can get too when we get back home. I will certainly take him up on that. I got some very thoughtful packages from home and so many sweet birthday wishes from friends and family! It was truly a wonderful day.
For months now, I have been trying to come up with some type of goal that I would like to accomplish in my 40th year. I was thinking maybe I should climb Mt. Fuji, or finally learn to play the guitar. After much consideration, I think that bringing home 2 babies will be enough. No exercise required. Bringing home little Bo from China will be a dream come true. And a tiny little Thomas is just icing on my 40th birthday cake. Sometimes I am overwhelmed with God's goodness. Today is one of those days.
