Notes- #3


Smiles after walking into a quiet, dark and sleeping house to see streamers and balloons across the kitchen on the eve of my birthday

The ease of dinner, conversation, laughs, and insight with a friend of 20 years- one of the true gifts I have received in life

Pondering what is in this red birthday giftbag on the kitchen counter- I don't dare take a peek

Anticipating the moment tomorrow morning when my son comes in my bedroom, makes me "close my eyes", takes my hand and leads me to my birthday surprise of decorations, cards and a gift- and you can guarantee I'll act as surprised and delighted tomorrow morning as I was when I walked in the door tonight. I'm a lucky wife and mom.
