One Fantastic Day

Nov 9th, 2010

Birthdays are a big deal to me. It is the one special day that is all your own. But for the last couple years my birthday has taken a backseat to the overwhelming duties of mothering two small children. This year was different though. We did nothing extraordinary yet it was one of my most magical birthdays ever. Here are a few of the highlights…

My husband played hookie and we bought new landscaping. Woo-hoo! Party time.

Buddha had been sitting there for too long between some long dead Fox Tail Palms. He is much happier now.


Best birthday card ever. They were tripping over themselves with excitement just to hand me my card. So sweet.


Can you guess who gave me this card? There was a more sentimental one too but I’ll keep that private.


TT and Gray (and mommy) made my cake. Strawberry Cream Cheese Delight.

Just the four of us sat around the table. They sang a choppy and quite pitchy version of the ‘Happy Birthday’ song but lovely nonetheless.


Here is what was left of the cake this morning. Tiny people with forks can really butcher a cake.

My 33rd year got off to a great start.
