My 31st Birthday

I celebrated a quiet birthday this year - Just the way I love it.

1. Pearly & godsons surprised me on Monday. More stated here.

2. Friday night, attended a wedding with Geo & a few other church mates. Received a very very VERY heart felt card from my dear dear friend.

After the wedding, Geo told me that he's going to "bring" me to my favorite place located in the East - my home. I thought it was a fabulous idea since I really do not enjoy being out too late and I thought "Ok, he's just going to wait for the strike of 12.".

Well, I thought wrong. The entrance of my room was decorated, my gift was hidden, a bouquet of my favorite flowers on my table and a cake was in the fridge.

Whole story?
This boy took half a day leave & came over to my place to "set up". A week ago, while I was out with CG, he came over to my home and conspired with my mummy. Took her mobile number and arranged amongst themselves.

What could have given him away if I am more alert?
My dogs reacted to him like they just saw him not too long ago.
My dad called me in the evening asking me what time will I be home with Geo. I dismissed it stating that we are in a wedding and he won't be coming over.

Conclusion?
Over and over again, I thank God that he placed this guy in my life who loves my parents as much as he loves me cause it shows that who matters to me, matters to him. Thank you.

Oh yes, on the actual day, I did lunch & shopping with my parents at the shopping mall near my home. After which, spent time to play with my dogs then rest of the afternoon, wrote cards & wrapped gifts. Evening went out with Geo for dinner & a bumboat ride. Later that night, chatted on the webcam with Carol.

Not forgetting the smses, MSN msges and calls I received throughout the day even till today. Friends from long time ago, friends I quarreled with before when I was younger, friends I thought I wouldn't receive from, children from HopeKids, clients from work. Every msg is precious to me. Every friend is precious to me & I thank God for each one He placed in my life cause every friend helped sharpen me.
