I have to admit, I wasn't too excited about having to go to work on my birthday. But...life. ;) It was a good day. Last night I had fun making brownie treats for the students at school & to send in my kids' lunches. One little girl asked if I was turning 15. It made up for the little boy that asked if I was pregnant. When I told him I wasn't, he wanted to know why I still looked pregnant. I told him to eat his brownie & hush up!
My husband surprised me with flowers (Gerbers -my favorite) & chocolate. Later I found out it was my girls who insisted I needed flowers & chocolate on my birthday. Thank goodness for daughters...who know what a mother who's been told she LOOKS PREGNANT needs!!
We ate supper at Cafe Garcia - a delicious Mexican restaurant in downtown Enid. On our way home what began as a discussion on gratuity, soon lead to government mandated this-and-that. Much to my husband's frustration, I wasn't listening. I informed him that I listen every other day of the year, but I don't have to on my birthday. Shortly thereafter, Noah started a story, then quickly interjected, "You can listen if you want, Mom."And if that wasn't enough...I got to sit down & share a piece of birthday cake with my honey.
So, it wasn't the birthday I expected.
It was better.
It was a great way to end my 35th year of life...and begin the next.
