My day was wonderful... just the way i like my bday! A quiet, happy, normal day but with tons of bday wishes from people far and wide!
Maelie seems to always be extra loving on my special day. It is really nice! Bill, Maelie and I went out for lunch. My boss told me to leave early today, what a wonderful gesture. I wonder if she realizes that such a kind gesture means SO much!
Poor Maelie just got up on this picture... she still has *the look*.

I made a bunch of cupcakes for work! I believe that yes, you CAN make some bday cupcakes on your own bday! It's important to give!

Natalie & the kids made me feel very special today... they invited me over for cake and special presents... and lots of hugs from Merrick!
MMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmm very tasty!!

They sang Happy birthday and then we gobbled the cake up!
A bit of milk with that! MMMMmmm

It was funny how Merrick didn't mind the Scream guy beside him... He was the special guest for my bday i think LOL
Would you like some cake too?
To get Myran to actually look at the camera is quite a feat! You have to trick him!

Before we left, the kids sat in the car. It just gave me visions of my life 8 years from now!!
When we got home, poor Bill had a list of phone messages for me!! The phone didn't stop ringing!
I am very thankful for the family and friends I have, for the life I built, and for the past, present and future. I find that I am in a period in my life where I am living fully, not constantly worried about what others think of me, but more happy with who i am, and all my little quirks. I surround myself with happiness, push away things that are there to bring me down, and just enjoy each moment I have on this earth. I am thankful for everything that ever happened to me in my life as it is pretty much what made me who I am today!
Happy Birthday Me!
