Yesterday, I told you about my very un-birthday weekend... and my plan to redeem it all, thanks to Humpty Dumpty. If you missed it, you might want to read it to fully appreciate the next "episode."
About an hour after the UN-Birthday post, there was a knock at the front door. My husband answered and the boys peeked around the corner to see who could possibly be at our house at that time of day. Seriously, no one comes to our house at 3:00 in the afternoon.
We hear Rob talking in a friendly tone, so it's not a solicitor. The boys ask if we're expecting something from fed-ex or UPS. Nope.
Then he shuts the door and walks into the kitchen... holding these:
"Daddy, did you get Mommy flowers?" No... I wonder if he's thinking with all the fuss and excitement if maybe he should have. (HINT HINT)
One of the boys asks, "Are you sure they're for Mommy?" HELLO???? Don't I deserve beautiful flowers? Every day, even???
They start guessing all sorts of names. Grandma. Grandpa. Friends from Ohio.
I open the card and LAUGH!!! One of those gut-busting laughs that just feel good.
The card reads, HAVE A VERY HAPPY UNBIRTHDAY!! (All caps, for real...) From a dear friend at church who tickled my heart with joy. I think UN-Birthdays just might catch on.
"A friend loves at all times..." Proverbs 17:17

I would like to know though, can we have a Mad Hatter Tea Party soon??? Love you and I think you are the upmost in awesomeness.
A mad hatter tea party sounds perfect!!! When you feel better, of course! xoxoxo
Leigh,
You will be in charge of costuming for the event. :D
Mee
Just catching up. Happy Belated birthday! Love the Un-birthday cake!
Joining you for Monday Madness. Flowers really 'fit the spot' don't they? They always bring such joy to my heart. I always tell my daughters, "never wait for a man to bring you flowers, or you may wait a very long time.... if you would like some flowers and you have the money, buy yourself some, you're worth it!"
