Your birthday should be all about you........after you've finished carpool, cleaning, laundry, school projects, soccer practice, grocery shopping and making your own cake!
LOVE IT!! That card hit home for me. I really did have a great birthday. My friends made me breakfast, mom got lunch for me and then watched my kids while I went to the temple and then we went to dinner as a family. My friend picked up carpool so I could go to the temple and not feel rushed. Perfect day. Thanks for all your calls and birthday wishes. Mia is still wondering when my party is though. She told me I should have an "Oprah" party....ok that is the only show I watch on a consistent basis. I tried to explain to Mia that when you get old you don't have parties like you do when you are young. I wish my birthday was everyday. My kids made their beds, cleaned their rooms and got themselves dressed all before I even got out of bed. What a perfect morning!
As a birthday gift to myself I decided to reminisce over the past 35 years. My mom always says your life will be different in 5 years. I thought it would be fun to look back at my life in 5 year increments. It was fun to look back at what was important at each age of my life.
