Yesterday was another one of my birthdays... Ariel brought me breakfast in bed and then she woke up her sister and brother and made them come in here and sing "Happy Birthday" to me. It was only 8:00 a.m. so they were stumbling a little and their eyes were closed and they sang it while they plopped themselves down on the bed, but they didn't complain. Ariel had stayed up the night before very late and decorated with streamers and sequins. She told me she "risked" her life decorating on account of the rickety stools she had to stand on to put the streamers up. It looked very nice and I was so happy for the "extras" she did to make it a special day. We worked on getting things wrapped up for school for her, most of the day. When Todd came home we went to dinner, Mimi's Cafe. I had the chicken tenders salad, which was a little dissappointing this time. Oh well...you can't have everything...where would you put it? We picked up a double lemon pie from Marie's and went home to eat it. I was relieved when we cut into the pie and found out it really was a lemon pie. Last year, my birthday was on a Sunday. We picked up the lemon pie on Saturday night and put it in the fridge. The next day, when it was time for birthday pie, I sliced it up to find it was really a banana cream pie on the inside and a lemon pie on the outside. Well that was the end of my birthday pie. I don't eat banana's....ever. The pie last night was delicious. I only got two candles though...I said I don't know what that means. Ariel explained it meant "forever and always." I got some very nice gifts from everyone, including a web cam from Megan, so Ariel won't forget what we look like...it was a very nice birthday.

Happy happy birthday dear! Happy days to come to you all year...I am so sorry that I didn't get a wish to you yesterday. I was a little distracted with 7 kids! I don't know how your parents did it with 13~ crazy but I loved it! Anyway, lots of love and you don't look a day over 19
You're a liar. There is no way you're 39. You are too hot to be 39. I'm just sayin.
I like your new earrings.
I despise everything on the menu at Mimi's Cafe.
Why...Jessica...you sweetie. You can feel free to comment on my blog anytime...you're always so generous with your comments. Ariel bought me the earrings. She has good taste.
