Nate mentioned that there was a soap he really liked from the soap shop down in the village (which he went to with his mom and sis-in-law, not really by choice. His text to me during that time was, "At soap place now :/" Awww. Heh.) but I didn't know which one. I went down there and guessed and got it right! It smells yummy.

I also bought him some vinyl but I can't remember what it was. Let me ask ... ok, The Velvet Underground and Andrew Bird. We went out to dinner that night at Yamato then to see a movie. We ran into some friends we hadn't seen a long, long time and ended up sitting with them. The wife, Jennifer and I actually just met for coffee yesterday morning! It was so good to catch up an encourage one another ... we're going to start meeting at least once a month. I'm so thankful that God keeps bringing such uplifting women into my life!!!!

So, Nate had a good birthday and felt loved. Mission accomplished. :)
