Fresh from Heaven

My best friend Sariah had her baby early this morning!

Grace Aryn was born at 2:28am on January 24th. She weighed 6 lbs. 7 oz. and is 19 inches long.
She has curly black hair and is so cute!!!

Here's a picture of Sariah and I with Grace, although you can't see Grace very well. When I get some better pictures of the baby I will post!

International Cinema

Nama and I saw this movie tonight with my friend Sara. It was such a good movie!

24

My 24th birthday is tomorrow!
I never imagined that I would still be single at 24. I thought that I would be married and possibly have a family by now. When I was growing up and learned that my mom didn't get married until 24, I always thought that that was so old! I now know how young 24 really is. I have learned a lot in my 24 years and have had great life experiences. But I am sure when I look back after another 24 years I will see how little I knew at 24. It's interesting how life works out. There are so many things in life that I wish that I would have right now and so often I ache for a loving companion and a family of my very own. And yet, I am also so thankful for the independence and freedom that I have by being single.
I know that I have a lot to learn in the rest of my life and I pray that 24 will be the best year yet!

New Shoes

So I discovered this website a few months ago. Cinderella's of Boston makes grown-up shoes for little feet! I really like lots of the shoes they have. And this week I saw that some of my favorites are on sale. Since these shoes are a little more expensive than I usually spend, it was nice to see them on sale! So I ordered a few pairs *cough 4 cough*! I'm excited for them to come and for me to have grown-up shoes. Because frankly you can only wear Barbie for so many years before it gets old! And speaking of old a 24-year-old cannot be taken seriously while wearing Dora the Explorer sneakers!
