My Birthday With My Churchmates

After 5 years my birthday falls on a Sunday again and it's more special to me. My church mates keeps on teasing me to have a grand celebration and I just smiled at them. Anyway I've really planned to have some celebration because our group loves cooking and eating together whenever there's an occasion. Actually if there's no birthdays or anniversaries we always think of something to celebrate just to have some eating together.

My mom-in-law brought two large bilao of biko con langka and I've brought 2 trays of brownies which for me are the perfect match for spaghetti. As usual our dear sisters helped us in cooking 5 kilos of pasta. I was so touched that my church mates always lend a hand in preparing my blowout for the whole church.

It was a happy celebration and I thanked God for giving me loving family, thoughtful friends and a warm community of church mates. The day ended with much happiness and I'm glad to reach this stage of my life with gratitude to my Lord that He has blessed me not with so much material things but with the real riches of peace, love and faith. Thank you Lord!
