Another year

Today is my birthday. I've been overwhelmed with Happy Birthday wishes from so many people and I feel very blessed to have so many people care about me. I just love birthdays! There is something wonderful about celebrating the day we entered the world.

Today I was able to spend the morning and afternoon with Julia while Chris took Emma for her HBOT treatment. We had a wonderful time and Julia really blossomed in all the one-on-one time with Mommy. Although we make one-on-one time a regular part of our routine for both girls, for some reason today felt extra special. I know we both felt it. We spent the morning running a few errands, playing at an indoor amusement park with some of Julia's friends and selecting a couple new Leapster games at Toys R Us. When we came home we were happy to see that Emma and Chris had just arrived back and the girls took a nap. Tonight we went to dinner together and laughed a lot. As a family. What a perfect way to spend the day! Now I'm ready to tackle another year.
