Honestly I can’t remember what I did the last leap year but I do remember what I did the one before that though. That was the year my wife and I got married but more to the point, the day after our families met for the first time as we started the process of becoming man and wife.
This year though, I am at home with the kids and they have just finished their school tests. Nigeria played Rwanda at Kigali for the 2013 Nations cup coming up in January and played 0-0. I read a few devotionals today and realized that while some of them recognized today and even talked about the beauty of its once in four years occurrence, most I guess assumed that when the time comes you will already have a newer version of the devotional but I actually saw one that was printed in January 2012 and it still stopped at 28 Feb I still wonder why that happened.
This is a once in 4 years date. When I was younger I used it to know when Olymics event will take place or took place, now it is an opportunity to do something that you can only repeat in 4 years. BBC world service celebrated 80years today under a big tent at the Bush House Building it sounded like a party. Tomorrow is March 1 and we are back to routine. To all the people celebrating have a nice one see you in four year. A day like this should not go uncelebrated…for all those whose birthday is today good for you for you are special and for the rest of us, this is such a good day. Have a wonderful time
Happy Leap Year everybody!
