another beautiful day
I was awakened past thursday by a voice mail of my beautiful sisters singing “happy birthday” to me as they were on their way to school. It was the most precious thing and it was something I saved on my voicemail and will keep saved for a while. My mom called and singed happy birthday and my wonderful assistant gave me a beautiful hand-made poster (shown below). Then, the entire promotions department came to my desk to sing the song as well. What more can I guy ask for? I did commit the sin of keeping my birthday to myself and, let me just tell you, that’s really a stupid idea. Yeah, I got confronted for it, but my mom helped resolve it by posting on my xanga for me (post below this one). I love my mom. Saturday, 12-04 was my mother’s birthday (my birthday was on 12-02). A little fun fact: my mom got to take me home from the hospital for my birthday. I got to sing happy birthday to her Saturday on speaker-phone with the rest of the family and hear her blow out the candles and read b-day cards. We’re going to share a b-day cake when I go home for Christmas and celebrate our b-day cakes together. 🙂 If I didn’t say it already, I love my mom! As promised, here is the poster my assistant, Shelley, made for me (you should check out her xanga site):
