I had a really great birthday this year. I asked everyone NOT to make me a cake this year, but I did have a couple of scoops of ice cream... chocolate ice cream to be exact! I have to admit earlier tonight I was craving at least a bite of birthday cake, but I'll be so glad I didn't have any later this week!!!
I spent the first part of my day with my parents and DS. Around 3 pm, I picked DH up at work and we met with a very nice couple and signed the paperwork for our new house. That's right! We are moving this weekend!!! What a birthday surprise!!! :-)
We are so looking forward to living in our new house! We absolutely love it!!! DS's even excited about the move this time. Last time we moved, he ended up having a really hard time with it (totally unexpected!) and even made the comment that we left his whole world back at our old house. He thought nobody would know where he lived! It was really sad, but he finally managed to get over it. So when DH and I decided to start looking for a new house, we thought he would be upset again, but much to our surprise, he was all for the idea. I am sure part of it is because we will be living a lot closer to one of his favorite people in the whole world! :-)
We are just looking forward to beginning this new chapter in our lives. It's awesome how God allows you to go through really difficult things that make the good things in life so much sweeter! We are amazed at how everything fell into place for us concerning this house. We had people praying with us and as soon as the request was made, miraculous things started happening. I am still in awe of it all! Isn't it funny how we walk in our faith and we believe with all that we are that God will do it. And when He does it, we can't believe He did it??? (Does that make sense at all??? LOL)
I am so glad that our house hunt is over!!! I do want to personally thank my sister, who is the one who sent me the email with pics of the house. (I haven't forgotten about that finder's fee!!! LOL) And of course, I want to thank God that He allowed everything to fall into place as only He can do!!!
