Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday, 33 years old now, wow! I always thought 30's were so "grown-up" but I still feel like I just graduated college. It surprises me all the time just how old I am!

I had a good day overall, still a little weepy over Max but I am getting better each day. Just thinking about him makes tears well up and a knot form in my stomach even writing this :( It's been so bad even the poops in the yard make me cry!

But on a happier note, Chad watched the kids yesterday morning so I could go to a card-making class at a friend's house. I actually made these:


Not too bad, in my opinion! I wish I was artsy enough to create them on my own but following someone else's lead is just more my style, so I will have to accept that!

Then Cohen returned home with a yummy ice cream cake for me! He was so proud of it and started licking the icing off before I could get this picture :)

Piper had spent the night with Nana (my Mom) and returned to me last night with a 1/2 dozen red roses and a pretty black necklace. She knows Mommy needs some jewelry and is always so thoughtful in her gift purchases!

Overall, a good day!
