I spent the morning watching a triathalon, secretively beating myself up over not doing it but convincing myself that I have a year until the next one. The afternoon I was with Nicholas running errands, and the evening was spent with the kids, Jeff, Jeff's parents and Grandma Rose. We had a wonderful pasta dinner, the kids made special cards and Gabriella helped Jeff make the cake (funfetti cake with funfetti iciing).
Monday I spent working which to me really isn't work. I got to hang with some of the cutest children who were full of birthday hugs all day! I had lunch with great friends and dinner again with the family.
To everyone who sent birthday wishes my way, I thank you so much. I know that sometimes our individual lives are full of kids, work, schedules, homework, sports, etc and there really doesn't seem to be any time for the "extras." Before we know it, days, weeks, even months go by.
I truly appreciate everyone who called, texted, emailed, or FB'ed that day. I look forward to my birthday every year....not because of the cake or presents, but because I get to hear from old friends, new friends, those that live close by and those that live far away. I love reconnecting and catching up with all of you! I miss my East Coast friends and family so much and hearing from all of you brightens my day. I love my West Coast friends and family and all of you are such an important part of my daily life.
I appreciate each and every one of you! :-)
Thank you for thinking of me and taking a minute out of your day to send your Birthday wishes. I know how hard it is to find a minute sometimes! :-)
My birthday dinner....
