Happy Birthday to me
My day started with a sleep in and breakfast in bed with a wonderful meal made by my wonderful family. A pancake stack with fruit. An Omelette with smoked salmon and a cup of coffee.
I went to a teaching seminar in the morning, then went and had coffee and relaxed with a book “life on planet mum”. Highly recommended especially for new mums.
Then, guess what I did? I went and had my eye brows waxed. This was my first time and Oh it was relaxing, the warm wax on my eyes felt nice and it did not really hurt when they pulled the wax off.
Came home and hubby was in the kitchen!. He had put the kids to bed and was cleaning the dishes after the 2 cakes he and the kids had made.
Told him to come, sit and chat with me for a while and then he fell asleep on the lounge. Maybe next time I’ll leave him with the dishes.
We had dinner at the roundabout at Hurstville … vietnamese food. Then dessert at Kairos Cafe that the church runs. I tell you, the food and drinks are cheap there and tasty too. We had banana split and waffles and it fed all 6 of us. We were there just in time for Craig Earl’s talk. Craig went on a mission trip to India, it certainly was an eye opener. Then it was back home for cake and bed.
The kids and Marty made a interesting cake really, the top layer was a banana, pineapple and something flavour and the bottom was chocolate with a cream centre and cream cheese icing. Thank you Marty and thank you kids for your efforts. Mum really had a fantastic day.
I received many phone calls, texts and facebook messages from my friends and family.
I truly am incredibly blessed.
So what did I get for my birthday? money! … I am in serious need of some winter jackets.
I was spoilt on Sunday as well when my brother, sister, sister in law, mum and nieces took me out for dinner @ the local RSL.
I did no housework and did not cook any meals on my birthday weekend. What a treat.
I’ll leave you with one more thing ……
Too funny about Marty / sleeping / dishes!
Must be all that hard work making that yummy breakfast and cake that wore him out! Hmmmm. Maybe I should send Eddy this link before Mother's day!
