Ok, so for those of you who don't know, my birthday is on December 1st...I was born in 1987 which makes me 23, (I thought I could save you some time on math.)
This year my birthday fell on a Wednesday, and naturally I had to go to work. This was definitely not a disappointment though, I know birthdays are always blessings, and this was no exception. At school the fourth grade teacher taught some students Happy Birthday and they all sang for me...right before giving me a huge group hug. I got cards from my classroom, and cake!
That night Tex and Marissa took me out for a birthday dinner at La Casita (a little restaurant that makes empenadas). I had my first empenadas with a group of great friends, Tex and Marissa, some friends from our bible study and another missionary named Gina.
I know I've said this before, but I am soooooooooooooooo blessed to have friends and a community in Mexico. I want to continue to spend time in their presence learning and growing with them.
