Happy Birthday to ME!

Friday morning, my birthday, I wake up and walk downstairs to a dark house. I could hear whispers and shushing and then my three cute kids jump out from behind the couch and yell, "Surprise!" They had taped streamers all over the walls and Logan had made me toast and orange juice for breakfast. It is so much fun as a mom to see your kids get to the point where they can think of others outside themselves and come up with sweet ways to show love!
I spent the most of the rest of the day doing regular mom stuff, but looked forward to and enjoyed all the phone calls from family and friends. And after many phone calls and texts we were finally able to find a babysitter and I got to go out to a movie that night  with this good-looking guy!  It was a good day.

A very, very happy birthday to you!!! Thank you for permitting your Mom to desert you in order to visit me. If she hadn't come, neither would grandma and Aunt Donnie. We had such a wonderful time, but we know it was a sacrifice for you!
