Happy Birthday, Anne Marie!
Anne Marie, who is wonderful and smart enough to (so far) keep me from also referring to her as "Foxy" here, had her birthday today. Happy Birthday!
And how did she get to enjoy her birthday? Well, sick with a cold enough to mutter "death on a stick" more than a few times. And enjoying a dentist appointment first thing in the morning. Followed by waiting in line at the DMV for a driver's license renewal. Then, getting a gift card from Lauren and I, reflecting the most creative gift choice we were able to bring ourselves to. Finally, enjoying a fine birthday dinner at the restaurant of her choice, while also counting "points" on her diet.
Anyhow, despite how things could have been better for her birthday, Lauren and I truely love and appreciate her, and hope the fever from her cold blocks her memories of all but the best moments from the day.


Forgot to say, she found $5 on the ground at the mall this evening. Now that's a great birthday!
