Everything I ever wanted

~Sunday was my big 35th birthday.
~In our house, tradition dictates that whoever wishes the birthday boy/girl "happy birthday" first is the winner. Every one else is the loser... unless you say it more frequently than the person who said it first.
~Carrie came in my room first thing this morning and presented me with a sinew necklace with a metal arrow-head on it that she had made... and a pack of gum with one piece still left in it. "Happy Birthday Mom"
(she won)
~I got lots of hugs and "happy birthdays" from the losers.
~My kids played violin in church and made me smile.
~Curt's mom threw me a birthday lunch.
~My faithful friend crashed the party with presents and WAY too much food.
~I ate too much.
~My niece gave me two bags of CHOCOLATE. I shared one. One bag.
~My good moccasins have been missing since the week i bought them for myself over a month ago. Tonight, Curt plopped them in my lap and announced "Happy Birthday, I got these for you." (nerd) haa haa!
~Ellie snuck out of bed long after tuck in and handed me a present: A sample perfume i gave her months ago and a tiny set of keys belonging to who knows what.
~I went around after everyone was sleeping and kissed each of them goodnight.
~I got everything I ever wanted.
