Birthday Parties

I wrote this back in July and never did post it.  So here it is…

Sam is three now.  I can hardly believe how quickly time goes by.  We celebrated his birthday this past weekend with a dinosaur party.  I know it sounds ridiculous, but there were thirteen kids present; six who couldn’t come.  Counting the parents also, we had close to thirty people in our backyard. 

I wonder what God thinks about children’s birthday parties.  Does He think that we go overboard?  Does He think it is a waste of time and money?  Are we spoiling our kids too much?  Or, maybe this is how He feels about us.  Maybe there is a big party going on in heaven to celebrate our re-birth in Christ?  Do you know the date that you claimed Him as your Lord and Savior?  I think that is the real “birth” day that we should celebrate.  I imagine that God and all the angels like a good party!
