HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

Haha. Yes! I am now 17!! We, yes, WE performed in Nashville tonight. We are almost back to California. Of course we stopped at his house in Atlanta when we were there. It was fun!

Anyways. On to my big day! So for the past couple weeks I have been slowly easing back into dancing. Doing a little bit at a time per day. And finally! I'm cleared to dance! That was 2 days ago, and we didn't have another performance until my birthday. So I was stoked all the same. BUT. I still gotta be careful so I don't push it too hard. Which, I know I won't... duh....

It was sooo exhilarating to be back on the stage. I mean, such a rush. I missed it too much.

The lights dimmed and Justin took stage. The opening bars to 'Up' started and I became nervous. Weird. Though, it is my first show back in like a month!

Justin began to sing. "It's a big big world." And I was spun on stage into Justin's arms. He smiled as he sang, and we danced. We were all really happy I was back. As the song continued the crowd never stopped their cheering, they were super amped to be a part of my return and my Birthday.

As the song came to an end. The crowd grew louder. I was literally standing in the spotlight for 5 minutes while the crowd cheered and clapped. Justin didn't feel like stopping them, he was smiling from ear to ear. I laughed as he finally decided to quiet them down. "Alright! Give it up, one more time for Jordyn!"

"WHOOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Alright. Isn't it great to have her back? I know i'm happy. And Happy Birthday to my great, amazing friend Jordyn. We have a huge surprise for her later. So, watch your back shawty." He laughed and the crowd cheered.

"Great." I said, rolling my eyes.

It came to the middle of the performance time when he stopped to talk to the audience. We were all on the side of the stage as per his request. Then, it was time.... "Hey, Jordyn. How 'bout you join me onstage again? Get her a mic?"

A stage hand came over and put a mic on my head then I put the pack in my back pocket. Sighing I walked on stage. "Whatcha got for me Bieber? Huh?" I laughed.

I got near him and he put his arm around me. "Nothing. Just gonna sing 'Happy Birthday' for ya. Is that okay??"

I eyed him suspiciously and narrowed my eyes, "I guess so. She said hesitantly." Everyone laughed and he continued.

"Everyone. I need your help! You gotta sing as loud as you can! Okayy?"

"YEEAAAHHHHHH!!!"

"Sweet! Come on out guys!" I turned to see my family walking on stage while Jake and Jesse wheeled out the giant cake.

"Oh-my-god!" I said as they got closer. I instantly hugged them all. Of course Justin's family and the crew were there too.

Justin smiled, "on the count of 3 guys! 1.... 2.... 3.... Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday dear Jordyn,  Happy Birthday to you!" He sang beautifully. I blew out the candles and hugged Justin.

"Thanks Justin."

He smiled, "you're welcome!" Then he kissed my head and turned to the audience. "Thank you guys for helping!"

Then they said, "YOU'RE WELCOME!!!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JORDYN!!!!!!!!!!"

I laughed, "Thank you all sooo much. And thank you for all the get well cards, birthday cards, and presents you guys sent. You truly helped me get better! I love you all!"
