I had a really great birthday. I don't think I've been so spoiled in quite sometime. First and probably the best surprise of all was the FedEx package I received early in the morning. It was from Mark (who was in Texas on business) and it was the cutest lil' watch I've ever seen. It has a flower in the center and as the petals fall off it says, "Loves me, Loves me not." I love the watch but I love the fact that Mark was thinking of me even while he was away and thought to send me something special. It made me feel loved.
Then Melanie came and brought me Boston Market for lunch and a yummy ice cream cake and a card with $$$$ and she made me beans and rice for dinner. Totally spoiled, I know. Then Nathan also delivered a card complete with a gift card to Target which I can hardly wait to go shopping with. All of my siblings (except for one, who was busy helping his wife deliver their baby #4) called me and Kathy sent me a package all the way from Utah with some of the fuzziest socks I've ever felt and Stephen's Hot Chocolate, some of the best hot chocolate I know of. Oh and a movie too. I got $$$$ from both Mom's and Dad's and a promise of a Girl's Night Out on Chris's tab sometime next week when Mark returns.
And then, the Young Women came and delivered an entire freezer full of frozen casseroles for when the babies are born, as well as about 10 packages of diapers! I got flowers and chocolate and a mini birthday cake too. It was fabulous! I also managed to get the entire house clean and Caleb to his well-child visit all in a day, thanks to Megan and her wonderful babysitting capabilities. Anyway, I felt totally and completely spoiled. Thanks to everyone who made it such a great day and for all the gifts and loving you sent my way. Turning 31 never felt so good.
