The Little Things

I can already tell it's going to be a long week. It's only Monday, but it feels like it should be Thursday! Today wasn't extremely eventful, i went to class, took a nap, ate lunch, did homework, pretty normal stuff. I did have one thing today that really made me smile. I always go check my mail after lunch, and usually there is nothing there, but today, i found this:



It's quite a sweet gesture, but it's 5 months early! Its highly possible that i put my birthday down wrong when i filled out my visitor information the first day i went. Or, my handwriting was messy because i filled it out quickly. Whatever the reason, i got a birthday wish over 5 months before my birthday, and it was just about the highlight of my day! I miss my church at home, but I've come to the realization that i can't compare it to Elevation, because they are completely different. I don't have my family or the kids in the nursery that i came to know so well now, but the sermons mean so much more to me, and they send out birthday postcards! I started out looking for a church where i felt at home, but there isn't another Westover because it's the people that are missing and Elevation is a wonderful church and i have new people that i go with. I have a new church home, it just didn't come about the way I figured it would. God works in mysterious ways, and I love him all the more for his little surprises!
