Happy Birthday to Me! What a wonderful day. To say that I was apprehensive about this birthday would be an understatement. Somehow the thought of being an adult in the real world made me sure that the day would be a huge unnoticed flop. I am happy to report that I was completely wrong.
With Kevin's immense love, cards from family, and numerous phone calls and messages throughout the day, I was swarmed with love and happiness. It was almost a birthday straight out of my childhood. The highlights being a picnic lunch of Arby's, getting my favorite baskin robbin's ice cream cake (mint choc chip), presents (of course), Japanese hibachi dinner (yay, MSG), and two rounds of mini golf to end the evening (a putt-putt b-day tradition).
Kevin really went out of his way to make sure everything went right. He even got the perfect birthday present to commemorate my birthday month; ruby earrings! I am so lucky to have him for a husband. He has had to put up with a lot lately with my ever irrational pregnancy hormones. He loves me so unconditionally that I wonder if I won some sort of marriage lottery. There is no question in my mind that God set me up for a lifetime of happiness when he showed me to Kevin.
I want to thank all of you for the birthday wishes, prayers, and gifts. I really do appreciate it. It is really nice to know that even when you're an adult, your birthday can still be just as magical as when you were 12!
As I laid awake last night unable to sleep (perhaps due to the large amount of sugar in my cake), I thanked God for a wonderful year with the amazing people in my life. I am truly blessed!
