Tomorrow is my birthday but I was presented with quite a treat upon my return home this evening…
Larry and Walker decided to inform the neighborhood (and passersby) that I am now part of what my HR friend calls “the protected class.” This broad gesture was the pinnacle of an already wonderful day — on my desk I found beautiful flowers from a friend’s garden and one of my staff orchestrated a surprise party complete with chocolate cake topped with STAR WARS action figures and sparkly pink candles (I was sent home with more cake which was even better tonight)!

Kindergarten. DONE. First tooth. GONE. Little Ninjas. GRADUATED. Reading. YUP.

Walker […]
