Kati's birthday

In a few months I'm going to a road trip to Elysian Fields to visit my best friend in the world, Kati Woodley. She and her husband Adam drove me around their sweet little town and showed me, where they went to high school, where their first date was, where they are wanting to build their home. I feel like I know her so much better after experiencing her old stomping grounds. Isn't it wonderful that we can still go home again but know you have changed. You aren't the same person as when you left. You've shed the old self to grow into who God intended you to be.

Kati is an amazing friend and there are so many reasons why I give thanks for her every day. Here are just a few of them:
