thirty.

So today...I am thirty.

And today I am so tired, but appreciate the friends who have made my day (and night before!) special. Great conversation, burritos, pie, good laughs, doughnuts, balloons, signs hung on my house, and some delicious Enchiladas. Elijah's been working the last month on one of those jobs that keeps him away...all day and night for weeks, so I didn't get to make any plans with him. So today instead I took the boys to a movie matinee, and then took them out for ice cream. Liam said "Not to be rude, Mom...but why are you being so nice to US on your birthday and doing things WE want to do?". LOL. I told him I hoped that I'm ALWAYS nice to him, but that I thought it would be fun to do some things that they liked on my day. We had a good time. Jude sat through the whole movie in the same chair. Miraculous.

And with that, I'm going to bed. Boys are asleep and I'm out of energy for the day. Here's hoping 30 will be good to me.
