Fortune Cookies

Last night I ate Chinese food with my friends Jason and Kris. When I cracked open my fortune cookie, the fortune read: You will be surrounded by luxury.

Well, predictably, we had a good chuckle over that, but it also made me think of the luxury of friends and family I have, and ones to come. Not that having them is a luxury, but that being a part of their lives and them in mine gives me much richness in life. Sounds a bit trite, maybe, and also sentamental, but sometimes those things are true. And in this case it is.

They also asked me to come to their 3-D sonogram...which was so great. A privilege to be one of the first to meet the little Bauernfiend. She is proof of faith and hope. More to add to the riches in my life.

You'll be surrounded by luxury because you'll be doing what you have wanted to do for so long.
