Happy birthday to me ...

Okay, so not the best birthday of my 33 years of life, but a birthday nonetheless.

This was my first year that I didn't have a birthday cake ... might sound kind of stupid, but to me it is a big thing. No cake, no ice cream, not even candles to blow out. Lord knows I could make a wish!! Yesterday I got a box of wrapped gifts from my sister which was a surprise. She got me the cutest doll who's name is Abby :) (great name, I know), she has brown hair and is weighted so she can sit on a shelf. She also got me a plaque for the wall, an adorable little leprechum figurine, a luck of the irish thingy (technical term), and a corn chowder soup mix. (All purchased from her store) I'm lucky to have such a wonderful sister! My mom of course called and sang to me with my little nephew. I was sleeping, so it is now saved on my phone so I can listen to it when I need a little pick me up. Instead of the correct words, Bryce sang "loser loser geek geek" to the tune of happy birthday! Then at the end my mom said "happy birthday", and Bryce said "nitwit". Gotta love an eight year old boys sense of humor! :) Needless to say it brought a smile to my face. A little after midnight, Will sang a wonderful rendition of happy birthday to me at his show at the Waterfront in Fells Point and Rodney played a beautiful solo in the middle of it. It was nice to be thought of.

Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy day!
