Blessed

Today I rang in my birthday surrounded by love.  I am so blessed to have the most wonderful family and friends.

Twenty-seven things I loved about today:

1. Being woken up at midnight so Harry could tell me happy birthday
2. Sleeping in
3. Orange roses from Harry
4. A piece of homemade cake from my hubby (funfetti with sprinkle frosting - yum! - the first cake he's ever made!)
5. A second piece of cake
6. Sharing cake with my dogs
7. Watching Charlie try to lick the frosting off his nose
8. Gym membership so I can get back to yoga class - yeah!
9. New clothes
10. A singing voicemail from my dad
11. Messages and posts from friends
12. Go-karts with Harry
13. Passing Harry in the go-kart, even though I know he slowed down so I could
14. Having Harry convince the go-kart guy that my niece and nephew should be able to ride go-karts with us for free.
15. Erianna screaming, "this is awesome!!!" on the go-karts
16. Batting cages
17. Missing every pitch at the batting cages
18. Mini golf with the whole family
19. Dinner and drinks
20. A third piece of cake
21. A message from my stepdaughter that said, "Happy birthday Skarin! Love you"
22. A text from a great friend that said, "Shit I just remembered you're old as hell today :)"
23. A text from my love, "I love you birthday girl, sweet dreams"
24. A fourth piece of cake
25. Being old enough to appreciate the day
26. Being too young to care about being older
27. The love of family and friends

Happy birthday to me, thank you to all of you!
