Last night was fun! Rachel and I went to the beach and watched the fireworks from there :) There were so many little family shows and it was so pretty. Today is my daddy's birthday and I'm a little sad I can't be home with him to celebrate it. I miss my family. I got really homesick yesterday and did something I used to do in High school. In high school I took flowers to the hospital and asked the receptionist to give them to someone who didn't have any. Usually, there was a teenager or an elderly person who didn't have family that recieved them. There is a birthing center here in NC and I'm hoping that the flowers went to someone who really needed some comfort, maybe a teenage mom. I'm not sure when I started doing it but I remember walking into a hospital (waiting for my dad to get out of surgery) and walking by people's rooms....rooms that had no personalized anything. I felt sad that someone didn't get any pretty flowers or cards or anything. So, I went to the store and wrote "thank you for being you" on a little card and left it with the receptionist.
anyway, I'm heading out to do more important sector stuff. Happy Birthday to my dad.
