So Yesterday at church I got a pleasant surprise. They threw me a surprise birthday lunch. My birthday is not until the 3rd, but the decided to do it yesterday. It was such a surprise. I haven't really focused on my birthday. I hadn't really even told anybody about it. I went into church yesterday not even realizing that Wednesday was my birthday. I thought I still had a week.
One of the Ladies announced that everyone was needed in the back. Well I stayed around and was talking with a few of the visitors that we had. I turned and asked My loving Husband "What is going on in the fellowship hall?" He smirked "I don't know" "You liar " I replied and smacked him with the bible a couple of times. Right about this time my three year old came busting through the door and said desperately "Come on MOMMA come on!" Where are we going?" I said. "In there!" "What is in there?" I asked "Your birthday" Levi said.
So it sparked my interest as to what was going on. I waked in to the hall and there was most of the church people around and these little kids all in a row singing Happy Birthday to me. My eyes swell up with tears. It was the awesome thing. I felt so loved in that moment. It was the most thoughtful thing anyone has even done to me in.
My mom was one to never have birthday parties. For one my mom just wasn't that type of mom. Parties just weren't her thing. Two is more trouble that it was worth to her. Steve and I have never really done much for our birthdays. So yesterday meant a lot to me. I am interested to see what the rest of the week holds. Hopefully more Birthday Surprises.
What a wonderful surprise!! Hope you have a great birthday tomorrow!
