From City Chick to Farm Chic: Birthday Bash

Saturday was my birthday. Another year has come and gone. But, it was a fantastic year, and an even more fantastic birthday! I had an awesome day. It all started at 6:30 in the morning with Starbucks and ended with cake late that night. I do have to take a moment and boast about my amazing daughter Kendall. She totally surprised me by her responsibility and kindness about my birthday. She set her alarm, with out me knowing, for 6 am on a SATURDAY and came downstairs to decorate the kitchen for me, as I usually have done for everyones birthday when they get up. She had been in her room the night before working on a sign for my birthday to put up and a home made card for me. She brought my presents down, arranged them on the table, put up my signs and then heard me up so she came busting into the room saying Happy Birthday. I was shocked she was up so early. I came out and saw what she did and that was by far one of the BESt birthday presents she could have given me. I love the fact that I have instilled those acts of kindness in her and that she wanted to make my day as special as I try to make hers. What a great kid she is!! Then I got double surprised when Hillary met us for breakfast and had gotten there before us and had balloons and flowers waiting for me at the table! I asked Harry if he told her to do that and he said nope they both did these things on their own. I was one proud momma!

Well I feel like I say it every year, but honestly THIS year I am in better shape and feel better than I ever have. I feel healthy, happy and fulfilled. It just kees getting better and better.
