I love the feeling you get when its your birthday, you think nobody remembers, and you come home, switch on the lights, and a dozen people scream, "SURPRISE!"
But no, today wasn't my birthday or anything, it was just the eve of father's day. I went to dinner trying to put on my best fake smile, but what the heck. I come out that happy-go-lucky girl again. I guess its what family gives you. I bought the cake for everyone, and they polished it off. It satisfied me and made my stomach feel this warmth, a warmth that nobody else but family can give you.
Today's dinner was just as typical as any other dinner celebration, but God made it especially different for me. In the rest of the family's eyes, its just like any other ordinary Christmas where shoes crowd the doorsteps and screams and laughter fill the playroom, but for me, it gave me indescribable comfort. It was like as though God was telling me, "Its not so bad isn't it? Missing the DYT event didn't hurt you at all."
Now I agree with God. And I'll triumphantly give a big shout out to all daddies out there right now. Although its not father's day yet, missing 10 minutes ain't so bad. I wish all the big daddies, small daddies, plump daddies, smart daddies, and even daddies-to-be Happy. Fathers. Day. (:
