Birthday Baking
Happy Birthday to me! I sort of forgot that it was my birthday this week until my dear coworkers brought in a German Chocolate Cake and a Carrot Cake to celebrate. Yum! I am so thankful for my department and for my amazing colleagues who bring joy, humor, fresh perspectives, and constant support to my workplace. Last night I again forgot that it was almost my birthday until I went to the mailbox and was pleasantly surprised to find a handful of colorful envelopes addressed to me. Being a mother, my own birthday seems less important. It almost makes me feel frivolous or even selfish to celebrate my own day when my world revolves around our child now, but thankfully my wonderful family and friends have reminded me to spoil myself and celebrate my day. I am spending the day with Ady and Kua, planning to go for a walk and read some books at the park (all my favorite things!), followed by dinner with the hubby tonight. Birthday Love This...
