Ohh my stars..so many good things have happened this week and in the months to come!
1) It was my birthday! I admit..I was not looking forward to this day..not one bit. The BIG two-oh! Thats just so old, I am no longer in the teens..eww. Ever since I was real real little, I wanted to be like Peter Pan...I never wanted to grow up...guess I was really just lazy, I didnt want to pay all the bills, be responsible, make all the choices [not getting told what to do pretty much by the parents], having a job the rest of my life...and just being out on my own. Its just plain scary. But I ended up having a fantastic day. I had to work at chick-fil-a, but they went easy on my all day..hehe! And they made Dima and me a milkshake each[cause she shares my birthday too..I guess I share hers..cause she is older then me:] and they stuck a candle in the whipcream and sang happy birthday! :P Thank you all for the messages, hugs emails, comments, hugs, phone calls, voicemails, and more hugs! :) It was a great day! Which brings me to the second one...
2) Lil James Eli Harris was born 11:50am, 8.5lbs, and 22 in long! :D according to Josh, he is the cutest ever, he is awesome, manly, and a good looking boy! And I agree! He sure is adorable!! What a great present to get...lil James Eli!! We are birthday buddies! [or you could say birthday twins:] And I havent told James yet, but we are going to be best friends..like this *crosses middle and pointer finger* We'll be pretty tight! hehe! :) "All this..."<--guess some of you will get that! :P
3) Tomorrow..I am going to Dare 2 Share. Im not quite sure what to expect..its my first year going...but i'm very excited to see what God is going to teach me and what all He has to say to me this weekend! :)
4) I am going to go to Wisconsin the beginning of April..to welcome my lil niece into the world! :) Yep..i'll be an aunt..and I am just so excited! And when I go up to ntbi..they will be at mtc[the bootcamp/language school] So we will just be 6 hours away from each other! :) I am going to be the aunt that spoils her with shoes..just converses..I have bought her two already..they are so lil and cute! hehe!
5) This summer...will be spent in Washington..yes..I am not going to mexico..as much as I want to, sigh. I havent told Josh no yet, officially, but I will probably start crying when I tell him no. Seriously...im not joking. But, I will be hanging out with my family. I told you all before, that during this summer, will mark two years of me not seeing them..but, I was wrong..it will be 3 years that I havent seen all my extended family. Which is a long time...
While we are there..we will have our annual 'Family Camp', thats when the whole family gets together..it seems like there is 60-70 of us if everyone comes, and we spend a week camping. They started this tradition the year Pete and I were born![my cousin:] So this is the 20th year! :) wow..I just realized that! :D We all pretty much live in the same area..so we see each other all the time...but its exciting to just spend a week all together! :)
6) NTBI...is coming soon! Awhh..its been like a rollercoaster for me this past year..at times I have been so excited to go...and at other times..I dont really want to go. I am really looking forward to the classes..but I just know so many people up there..in a way that will make it easier..but there are so many awkward relationships, people I used to be friends with, people I know but dont really talk to, and family friends that have known me since I was lil. Its just going to be weird..I would rather move some place completely knew..and have a brand new slate and know no one. But i'm pretty sure this is where God wants me to go..so I am excited to see what He has for me up there! :)
Guess thats all the news for now :)
ohh p.s..work is going great today..but maybe it cause everyone that pretty much answers the questions are out today or are in meetings the whole time..so everyone that calls or comes in, I just have to get their name and number and give the person the message..haha! Pretty easy! And I have enjoyed talking and laughing with Nancy today..an older lady who is a snowbird[one that comes down to the headquarters to help out during the winter..for those of you who dont know] She is so great! She has so many stories to tell and has had so much experience on life! And her and a bunch of her friends were going to go to chick-fil-a to each lunch, after she finished working and she was disappointed when she found out I wasnt working there today! :)

"All this..." ;) Bahahaha!
I had to tell Josh all I was feeling about Mexico, and I cried. Pretty sure he's used to emotional girls by now. :) He's great.
Glad you had an awesome birthday! Love you, Megan!
Thanks for the note Megan:) Tyler gave it to me. Well I don't know what that reference is "all this"...but I bet its really funny:)
All the news sounds great. I know it'll be hard....especially for those here :) but it will be good! Take care Megan!
That's a great comment Jessie:)....
CONVERSE NATION!!!!!!! Hehe. Infect everyone,right. Hehe.=) LOVE YOU MEGAN!
Hey Megan,
I am glad you had a good birthday even though you didn't plan on having one. I am so happy about your 'birthday present' too. That's so cool. I hope you had a wonderful time at D2S. I love you!
Im glad that you had a good day =) sorry your going to miss mexico
Oh Megan, this was a lovely post, great job, girl! I enjoy reading it very much. I'm so glad you get to spend that time with your family this summer, but I'm very sorry that you had to make that hard decision about Mexico.=(
And about you moving away... rest assured that I ain't too psyched about you leaving either. But, obviously, we gotta go with it if that's what we think God's will is. It's a bummer though. But girl, I am so excited to see you grow soooo much more when you are out and on your own. That's such an awesome growing experience! But I understand that it's scary. And I know what you mean about going to NTBI. It is a little weird. I like what you said about how you'd rather go to a place with a clean slate; and I completely agree! Oh well. You know I'll be praying for you girl, I love you!

p.s. I liked how you snuck the lil' "all this..." in there, that was funny =)
