The big 4-0!

I had a wonderful birthday yesterday. It started off with a surprise visit from Doug at school. He walked in the door between 1st and 2nd hours with a card, balloons, Hydrangea, milk duds for me (my favorite!) and Herhsey kisses for all of my students. He is now quite popular with my students. Friends and family had flowers and cookies delivered to school and more cards, gifts, and still more flowers were waiting for me at home. I asked Doug for a quiet night with just the three of us, Chinese food, and a rented movie. It was perfect! I am so happy to be living another year in this blessed life!
