Today is my birthday! I am 45 years young! Inside, I feel young and spirited like a 20-year-old, but my body is starting to tell a different story. Haha... :)
My boys have tortured me by placing my gift and card on the table yesterday afternoon. When I arrived from work, I gasped when I saw it and instantly wanted to open the pretty wrapping.
My son decorated it with magazine pages and I love how he created a bow out of comic strip paper.
Of course, I had to wait to open it today. So check out what they gave me!
I told them I wasn't expecting a gift, but they were sweet enough to get me one anyway and my card was filled with money!
I received a few cards in the mail and a delicious slice of cake from church on Sunday.
As I approached my office this morning, I was greeted by these beautiful balloons.
My coworkers took me out to lunch at a local restaurant and one of them baked me a cake. I guess I was too excited because I forgot to take a picture. Oh well, I must say I had a great day! I received lots of hugs, lots of Happy Birthday postings on social media, phone calls, and other gifts!
Tonight, I celebrated with the two most special people in my life...my boys! They treated me to dinner at my favorite restaurant, Senor Tequila and we feasted on the most delicious meal. Again, I was too excited, or too hungry, to take a picture. Too much fun can cause you to forget things.
I am truly blessed to have amazing family and friends who found it not robbery to go out of there way for little ole me. I want to thank everyone for making my day special and thank God for allowing me to see another day here on Earth.
Are you an August baby like me? How are you celebrating?
