I wanted all my kiddos around and I got that and even more. I jokingly stated I wanted to visit Vegas with my children for my birthday, but that idea was set aside because of some other things that cake up.

On my birthday my children pulled me aside. Handed me two cards, one was stating happy birthday and how they loved me and then told me to open the second one. It was another lovely card with a note taped up. They paid for plane tickets and accommodations for all of us to visit Vegas next weekend. I am still speechless.

Lots of family, friends, old and new laughing, playing, singing. I will again say I am blessed. I am blessed.
