one lucky girl

Today, during Michael's lunch break, we went down to the Red Cross to donate blood. He gave a double donation, and I did a single, which means we might have saved about 9 lives all together, all in one day! That's like… an entire cat!

The best part of the donation process is sitting at the cantine afterward, eating cookies and talking to the elderly volunteers. Today, there was a sweet old lady who definitely had a crush on Michael! She told me, "If you hadn't found him, he'd be mine! I'm in the market for a young man!" She also asked if he had any older brothers… Sadly for her, the answer was no.

At any rate, I definitely realize what an enormous blessing Michael is to me. I don't know what I did to deserve such a faithful, smart, hard-working, handsome boy, and yet here he is.

I tried, for the first time today, to make a digital scrapbook page. Conveniently, the theme matches that of this post! Hopefully your eyes won't suffer too much looking at it…
