Happy Birthday to me!

Three year old me

For those who wished me a great day, your wish came true:

• A beautiful card and a great gift to wake up to

• Celebrating worship and communion with a congregation who sang "Happy Birthday" to me and enjoying some very good-natured kids of the church

• Hanging out with my easy-to-hang-out-with son

• An amazingly good Mexican food restaurant in our neck of the woods -- great find!

• A bookstore browsing and two new quilting magazines

• Enjoying cooler weather and noticing leaves tinged with fall color

• Happy birthday calls from sweet daughters and hearing from dear family and wonderful friends -- far and near -- all very special people

• Gluten-free chocolate cake (thank you, Betty Crocker!) with dark chocolate icing and vanilla ice cream -- for supper!  That, plus a multi-vitamin and some de-caf coffee sounds plenty good enough.  

• And I am pretty sure there will be a Netflix movie to end a perfect day!

Life is good!
