Here is my favorite birthday memory:

My favorite birthday was probably when my husband was away at the Police Academy. Although my husband is ALMOST always working on my birthday which happens to come just 4 days after his birthday (he works on his birthday too) this time he was actually out of town and I wasn't able to see him at all on my Birthday. But when I came home that afternoon after picking up the kids from school there were several large boxes at my door. They contained  a birthday cake made out of flowers, balloons, chocolates and a giant teddy bear! With a card that said "Sorry he couldn't be there on my birthday". I felt so loved because he was so busy with the academy but took the time to arrange for the delivery so that I would know that he was thinking of me. Every year since he has sent me flowers, chocolates and balloons for my birthday. I treasured it because each year he picks the items out and has them specially delivered. Because my birthday is 8 days before Christmas it usually gets lost in the shuffle of things. So it's nice when some one takes the time out to recognize it. My mom also used to try and do that when I was growing up because she has it worse than me. Her birthday is on Christmas Eve, so everyone else usually has plans on that day and aren't able to celebrate with her.


Ethan likes "Cars" a lot so I wanted to make him a Lightning McQueen card that had a big smile on it like Ethan has! I also like personalizing cards, so I added his name to the front of the card!
