So I'm disappointed in myself. My intention when I started this blog was to write something - anything! - every single day. And here I am, not even a week in, and I've missed a day. Not today, of course, but yesterday.
Yesterday was busy. We had Emily's 15th birthday party (although her actual birthday is today) which consisted of seeing The Maze Runner and then going to the casino to the buffet for a lunch with Grandma and Grandpa and our friends, The Hammers. I do believe a good time was had by all! Then when we got home Em and I used some of our Bountiful Baskets goodies to make pico and I cut up our cantaloupes and pineapple for easy eating. But then I was tired and surprisingly so was Emily so we actually went to bed at 9:30! Which is why nothing was written. By the time I got to it I was simply too tired.
Well today is Emily's birthday and I made her a cake at her request. It is not gluten free and it has been difficult to resist but it is for Em and she is not doing gluten free and so I hope she enjoys every single bite of that cake! Oh wait - when it was out cooling one of our kitties got up on the counter and had some birthday cake so he/she celebrated too! And infuriated me in the process as I hate when they get on our counters. A good scrubbing followed the discovery prior to me preparing any further food on it.
I'm still tired but happy for my daughter and so proud of the young woman she's become. She's so sweet and kind despite the things she's had to go through in her life and I am so proud to call her my spawn. <3
