Busy Day

It was a busy day today. Well, I stayed up late last night again to watch a movie with the family. We watched Star Wars II. Tomorrow I will probably take my oldest daughter to see Star Wars III at the theatre. The problem with me staying up late is that I like to get up early 5 to 6 am at the latest. I was so tire that I slept right up to about 8am. When I wake up this late, I feel like my day is half over. Not long after I was up I received a ministry call which took about an hour. Then I did my morning prayer, Bible reading, and devotions. Then I wrote a devotion for the church men's meeting in the evening. From there led right into some friends coming over for our dog's birthday party. Yes, you heard that right! Petra, my boxer, turned 4 today and my 11 year old has had a birthday party for the dog every year since we got him as a puppy. She usually invites her friends over for a get together and we buy some kind of treats and dog toys for him (the guests are not required to bring anything however). Today though, our friends brought these huge bones from the deli over which was very thoughtful of them. This kept Petra happy most of the afternoon! Well as weird as it sounds for someone to have a birthday party for a dog, I trust that it will provide fond memories for my daughter when she is older. Well, it is late now, and as Yoda might say, "End, my rambling must".
