Turning 16 isn't as great as people make it out to be, but it definitely has been one of my favorite birthdays.
I got a lovely car, [well I got it a couple weeks before but it was still a huge gift!] and now I can drive it because somehow I actually passed my permit test! And I love driving, just saying:)
Several of my friends surprised with some neat stuff including breakfast, giant cards, brownies, cupcakes, etc.
Our boys basketball team had a big game that night and won, a great ending to a great birthday.
But now it's all over, and I'm trying to figure out what I have to look forward to. Spring break? Summer? Vacations? Getting my license? Golf season?
And.. What is coming up that I'm dreading?
Honestly though, I should probably look at it this way. Each day is special. I can make it anything I want it to be. Just because it's not a holiday or something exciting isn't going on that day, doesn't mean it can't be a super awesome day!
Besides, if I keep anticipating what will happen in the future, I may miss what could be some of the best days of my life.
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself." Matthew 6:34
Each day is a gift. Embrace it first, and worry about tomorrow when it arrives.
