I’m 32 today.

thumb_IMG_6705_1024After a 14 hour day at work, I’m home. And it’s my birthday. Another year behind me. I don’t know about you, but time seems to only speed up the older you get. I was 29. Now I’m 32?! Slow down life!  I woke up pretty cheery this morning and went to Liberty Market with my boys to enjoy a free breakfast. We ordered the cinnamon roll that’s the size of a human head and the blueberry scone. It was perfect. Then I arrived to work to a box full of Bosa donuts (I think my work peeps know I have an obsession with sweets). Between text messages and Facebook messages and voicemails (and surprise flowers from my sister!), I actually had an incredibly productive day at work. Lots of great meetings and brainstorm sessions, then lunch with the girls. After work I attended some planned focus groups for my product line and then my team surprised me with Gigi’s cupcakes! I’ve literally had more sugar today than the average person should have in their lifetime, haha. Still on a sugar high of some sort right now, or maybe it’s a high from the day! I usually dread my birthday, in a way. I really don’t like extra attention. I’d rather things be about someone else. Sure, if you get me a gift I’ll freak out, but usually I don’t want any special treatment. But, for some reason I just went with it today. I smiled for the “Happy birthdays” and talked about my plans and wrote quick thank yous to all who texted and called and Facebooked. Maybe I’ve finally grown up. But what I’m realizing now at the end of my birth day is how many truly amazing people I have in my life, who go out of their way to make me feel special. One being my husband. I came home to more flowers, one my favorite red blends, the s’more bites I’m obsessed with from Trader and a card signed by Jace.  Thanks sweetie, and thanks to all my wonderful friends and family. You know who you are. XOXOXO
