We listened to church online this morning and I had the following stuck in my head all day:
Jumping up and down.
Jumping up and down.
Shout Hosanna!
I don't know why God led me to want to help out this veteran today, but I was thankful that I did. He was very thankful and cheery and I have a feeling that in his own way, this man is sharing the love of Christ with those that he comes in contact with. Please join me in praying for this man and his current situation and that God will use him for His glory.
My uncle's birthday is on Tuesday. This will be his first birthday without Pap-poo being there. My parents and Shaba Girl had planned a surprise birthday party for him when he came over today. They had quite the lunch menu. My mom made Pap-poo's meatballs, my dad made his delicious coleslaw and Shaba Girl helped make the chocolate chip cookies--from scratch. We also had mozzarella planks (bigger than sticks) with marinara dipping sauce. They had also made a batches of everything for my uncle to take home as his birthday present. Lucky man!
After opening his cards and gifts, it was time for "cake." Since my uncle is not a "cake person," he had a plate of the chocolate chip cookies with a candle. We all sang happy birthday and then we all sang "and many more!" which is the part Pap-poo used to sing at everyone's birthday. I have to admit, that part makes me emotional now every time we sing it.
