Do I Have To Turn 35?

All this year I've been fine with turning 35.  I had no problem turning 30, so why would I care so much about being 5 years older than that?  So why does it seem I'm hating the idea?  Right now, I'm going to blame it on the wedding I went to last night.  For some reason, they always make me feel older than I am.  Not sure why, but not going to think too hard about it either.  Introspection is good for you, right?

I'm going to go into work for a few hours, then come home and spend the rest of the day with my son.  He came home from MN on Friday, and I couldn't have asked for a better birthday present.  Not sure what we will be doing, if anything, but spending time with him will be enough.

So please indulge in some cake and ice cream today and I hope you all have a great day.

Aidan Is Turning 8 Today!

My wonderfully brilliant son, Aidan, is turning 8 today and I wanted to let him know how much I love him and truly appreciate every moment I'm with him.  He is the best thing to ever happen to me and I thank God for him everyday.  I'm grateful for the opportunity to watch him grow up and look forward to many, many, many more years.  Happy Birthday Kiddo!

I'm Turning 34 Today!

Not sure what this picture has to do with it being my birthday today but I'm in love with the illustrations of Edward Gorey and for some reason this one made me think of birthdays (don't ask).  I hope everyone has a great day today and I especially want to thank all of you who've I've gotten to know over the last year.  You have made this last year special for me and I hope we get to know each other better by the time I turn 35.

I just thought I should post a picture that was a little more appropriate for the day.  That and I think Eeyore is the cutest little guy ever invented.

I'm also very lax in getting the winner of my Blogoversary giveaway announced so with no further ado....the winner is......Sheila of Bookjourney.  I will be emailing Sheila and letting her know that she has won a $20 gift card to Amazon.

Have a great day everyone and eat lots of cake and ice cream for me!

Aidan Turns 7!

Aidan turns 7 today and I just wanted to tell him how much I love him and cherish every single moment I spend with him.  I am so thankful to have him in my life as he is the best thing to happen to me. We will be spending the day doing whatever he feels like doing, it may be Chuck E. Cheese (lets hope not) or a pool party at the Y,  for all I know it may end up being both.  Whatever we do I know we will have lots of fun on his day.
