We had big plans for my birthday–we were going up to the canyon, like we do this time of year. But then, all THIS happened. Now, honestly, you will never catch me praying that it will stop raining…ever. But it did make rearranging our canyon picnic–non-negotiable.
Kindly, sweetly April offered to corral the party and have it at her house.
She even made molasses cookies for all the kids to decorate. We used to do that when my kids were little…and when I was little too.
Then we got to play my favorite game in all the world. It’s fun getting to boss everyone around. Heh, heh.
No matter what you think that score card says– of course, I won the game…
because it’s my birthday. That, my friends, is how it works.
So ha.
Everybody had fun decorating the cookies according to their own personality–as you can plainly see.
Heh, heh.
What a lovely birthday.
What a lovely bunch of kids.
What a lovely life.
I’m so grateful.
