Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday. Last year we were in the hospital with Daniel for his urinary infection on my birthday (bad memories)- so this year was bound to be better. Gratefully it was! Daniel sang me the happy birthday song all morning which he sings like this: "birthday to you, birthday to you, birthday to you..." over and over and over - sometimes with a big finish - making the "you" extra loud and drawn out. He also picked some flowers for me out of the yard - what a sweetie.
My friend Lillian watched Daniel for us all afternoon and evening (I can't thank her enough) so that I could meet Shannon in the city for dinner and a show. It was so wonderful to get out! We went to dinner at a little Italian place called Cara Mia and then we went to see Mary Poppins on Broadway! It's times like these that make me glad we live so close to NYC.

Happy Birthday. I thought about you all day yesterday but I never called or emailed, what a bad friend I am.

Looks like you had a great day.
