Happy Birthday To Meeee!

Yay, it's my birthday. My 21st birthday.. haha! I am getting soo old, it's crazy. I vividly remember how I  celebrated my 12th, my mum got me this huge pink sparkly fruit cake which I adored and shared with my family. Now, the digits have flipped and I am 21! Yipeee! I feel like a big girl, like a true adult. I feel ready grab the world and shove it under me! I feel so in-control.

Above all that I have written, I am so grateful to God. So many things have happened in my life which I have all reasons to be thankful for. The fact that I am alive today is a huge testament of his love for me and a constant reminder that he is and will always be there for me. I may not be able to spend the day with my family today (they are all the way back in Nigeria and I am in Canada) but just knowing that they are well and okay puts a big smile on my face and makes me realize that I am truly blessed beyond words.

So people may be wondering how exactly I intend to celebrate this birthday I am so over the moon about. Well guess what, I am writing this from work. Haha! And I don't look red carpet eligible either. I have absolutely no make-up on and my front earrings are off! I actually rushed out of the house this morning to work.. my life has been a roller-coaster lately! But you know what? This roller coaster ride of a life that I have is what I am grateful for. The fact that I can breathe, walk, run, see, ...BREATHE... the fact that I am alive and can do everything I want is what I would spend today thanking God for. He has been soooooo faithful and I couldn't be more grateful!

Happy birthday to me and all my birthday mates all over the world! Wishing you all showers of blessings and  many more birthdays. :)

Kay!
