Proved to be a good one. D brought a yummy dinner home from Zoe's kitchen, flowers, and a birthday cake with 'Happy Birthday Mommy' written in big fat purple icing. J dug his cake (literally) and had it all over himself. A chose to timidly lick some purple roses, then profess she was finished.
D got me a really cool digital picture frame that I've been salivating over - so I can actually see some of the cute pictures we've been taking with our new spiffy camera.The best gift, though, came from my mom. I had no idea she was able to write - tucked into my birthday card from mom and D was a hand-written note saying 'I love and miss you Kristen, Love Mo-----' The last few letters sort of trailed off, and the writing was very squiggly from the tremors in her left hand - but when I saw it - I was speechless and tears came to my eyes.
A and I are flying out in July to help mom celebrate her birthday - I can't wait to see her.
It truly was a happy birthday.
