The 32nd

Today is my birthday.  "The big 3-2."  As one of my friends jokingly pointed out, I'm only 8 years away from 40!

But truly, this has been a wonderful birthday.  The kids excitedly gave me hand colored cards.  Caton brought me flowers, a running case for my phone, and a WKU Tervis tumbler.  My Mom came to visit for the weekend and with her she brought a Keurig coffeemaker (which is AWESOME!!!), and some gold wedge shoes.  Plus she has been helping out tremendously with the kids, and took them today to help pic out an icecream cake.  We went to dinner and after "had a party" (according to Weslie) complete with cake and candles. It was perfect.

Catons parents sent a much needed giftcard and some new earrings.  And my Aunt & Uncle sent an awesome bracelet/earring set.  My Aunt also sent my Grandmother's recipe book with all of her hand written recipes in there.  Also in the back of the book was an inscription that said that I gave the book to my Meemaw 30 years ago.  Yea, that one definitely stirred up some serious emotions.  Such a treasure to keep around.

I have been showered with love and gifts all day.  And it has filled me up with so much joy!

This has been a wonderful birthday...kicking off year 32 in style!!!
