Even though we had all the ingredients to make cheesecake on Sunday, Levi procrasinated and made it on my birthday before he went to work. {Your supposed to let it sit overnight in the fridge.}
So we had it that night...well...he and the girls did. He got out of work at 9pm and came home to finish the blackberry topping for the cheesecake, and then I blew out my candles and headed to go workout. I had a piece of cheesecake when I got home at 11:30pm...mmmm! It was good, the best cheesecake yet! Thank you Levi for making me my favorite "cake!"
And this is how much I had ate through the night {minus the small pieces that they ate}...you see everytime Levi makes cheesecake, I dream about it all night. So when I wake up to get a drink of water and go to the bathroom I take a bite or two or three of cheesecake and then go back to bed! I LOVE c h e e s e c a k e !!!
It's wierd to think that I am actually twenty nine. Because it doesn't feel like it. Yet every year I have to think back at how old {young} I was when my parents were my age now. {Does that make sense?}
It's funny to me because it's just another year...but another year that you have more experience and are more wiser. It really is true. And to those who haven't grown up yet...to realize that you should slow down and enjoy the everyday moments...start now, because in a blink you'll be almost thirty like me! And it's not even old. Now back when I thought thirty and forty and fifty were old, it's like a slap in the face really! I swear, not old! Our bodies grow old, yet we are still the same person inside, same personality...we just grow and learn more about life. Growing up, all I wanted was to keep going, keep growing up, I wanted to be older now. My parents, and my grandma told me that I will have time to do everything that I need to in each stage of my life, I just needed to be patient. {things like wearing makeup, going to dances, etc...} Guess what they were right. Aren't they always? Now I look back and wish that I would have taken it easier and slowed down a bit. But you can't change the past. Now I live for each day, and enjoy every moment I can...yes there is time for everything, you have to learn to make time for what is most important to you.
I love my family! Oh...and I love cheesecake...mmmm! Thanks for all the birthday wishes and presents!
