Best. Birthday. Present. Ever.



Yesterday was my birthday. I won't bore you with the details of my age or the even the decade of my birth, but I will share with you the funniest birthday present I've ever received. I knew I was in trouble when my husband insisted on videotaping me opening it. I also knew that I better love whatever was inside that present because Caleb picked it out ALL by himself (and paid for it too) and was super, super excited to give it to me. It cracked me up that immediately after he got upset at Myah for 'helping' me, he tries to help me open the present. Double standard, anyone? lol

Behold, the birthday memory that will live on forever...


In case you couldn't really see it to well in the video. It's a glass rooster. He lives in my bedroom on my night stand now and I can't help but smile every time I look at him.




On another note, my darling hubby found a babysitter for the kids yesterday and took me out for the afternoon and evening. We went to antique shops, explored a quaint beachside downtown and walked along the beach collecting shells. Then he took me out to dinner at The Melting Pot - our favorite 'special' place. Tonight he brought me flowers and baked me a chocolate cake with homemade peanut butter icing. Yum!

What an "amazing" gift...I think it was very sweet that your husband was willing to buy it because it was what your son picked out. Tim would've said no and bought something practical. I bet you'll get a lot of smiles from it every time you look at it. Happy (belated) Birthday. Glad you guys are doing so well. Stay in touch.
