So, here are the highlights from my big day:
- Although Steve had to be out of town for the actual day, he took me out for SUSHI the night before. I haven't had sushi since before I was pregnant with Jack, and it was quite delightful!!
- My headache, although still present, was nearly unnoticable all day long. Hallelujah, the antibiotics are kicking in. Finally.
- I got several phone calls and texts from sweet people who remembered, somehow, that it was my birthday, even though it has literally been years since I've seen some of them. I wish I was that good at remembering other peoples' birthdays.
- Noah and I taught our Rumba for the Dance Festival that the Snowflake Stake youth are participating in--and not only did no one die, but it actually looked like everyone had fun.
- My mommy made me a chocolate cake, and my parents and youngest brother all sang "Happy Birthday" to me. I've decided you're never too old to get a kick out of blowing out the candles on your own birthday cake.
- I'm 26 now, so I'm going to seem wiser to people who ask me how old I am, now that I'm in my mid-to-late 20's, rather than my mid-to-early 20's. There's a difference!
- I got on Facebook the day after, and felt so spoiled by the sweet people who said nice things to me. It's always nice to feel special.
- I got Jack to take a THREE-hour nap, which meant that I got to take a nap, too!!
- I got the movie Tangled from Jack and Clark (though I suspect Steve had a hand in it, as well). That's one I definitely wanted to own.
I've decided that birthdays are nice. Thanks to all of you who made it so special!
