If you've been around much over the past (almost) 10 years of the life of this blog, you've probably seen me extol the virtues of February a time or two. Holy cow! Can you believe it's been 10 years? That also means that I have been friends with Shauna (who is the coolest) for 10 years. Wow! What a blessing. Shauna is the lovely friend who got me into blogging.
I digress, back to February. It's a delightful month full of wonder, whimsy, and willy nilliness. Wonder as in, "I wonder how many 'R's are in February and where you put them." Whimsy can be found in weather-predicting rodentia. And no one can deny the willy nilly nature of the number of days to be found in the month. All of these things and much more make February unique & fantastic.
Other highlights include the triumphant return of baseball. My Red Sox enter the 2014 season as reigning World Series champions. That feels great.
And of course the number one reason for February's amazingess is . . . my birthday! I will be 32 this year, which is about 90 in nephew-guessed years, but no matter how you count them, they are mine and they are blessed. I can confidently say that it is possible to lead a blessed life even when you end up where you never planned or imagined. I'm so glad God's imagination is bigger than mine, and I look forward to seeing what He has in store for February 2014 and for 32.
Happy February! :)
