Birthdays & days off.
Four days this week have gone by in a blur.
I’m not sure of what happened.
I worked from home yesterday.
Also happened to be my birthday.
The quietest one in terms of celebration I’ve ever had.
Also the most satisfying.
Warm greetings from those that matter most in my life.
Offers of baking a rainbow cake from my 5-year old.
Hours of laughter with her & her 11-month old brother (who sometimes gets dressed up like a girl – not that he has any say in the matter).
Quiet dinner with my lovely wife.
The best day ever.
