Birthdays & Jesus

So my 28th birthday was on Tuesday.

Anyone who knows me well, knows that I am more of a small dinner party rather than a surprise and/or large birthday bash kind of gal.

That's why I went to dinner with my roommate and my mom. It did not help that I was sick and could barely enjoy the taste of the amazing pizza we had.




My roommate, Krysten, knows me well... She bought me five different colored earbuds (because I have the worst luck with them) and a three movie collection of Doris Day and Rock Hudson movies. 

Anyway, I was thinking about birthdays. I want to know that I am important in people's lives all year, not just on the day that is "all about me". My roommate's presents to me meant a lot because of her PRESENCE with me throughout the year. My top love language is quality time. I LOVE SPENDING TIME WITH PEOPLE!

But then there are people who think that just because they go to a Christmas service that they KNOW Christ... it's truly about spending time to get to know Who Jesus is. It's a relationship.

I love Christmas because it celebrates my JESUS... and there is nothing better than celebrating the life and legacy of a great Friend.
