Thank you to everyone who sent messages or called to wish me a happy birthday. It was a good day, even though Benjamin still isn’t feeling well. Still it was very special! Sam helped make birthday cookies with Mary Lou and we enjoyed a yummy meal with our friends Mary Lou, Holly, Oscar and Henry. Julio’s parents arrived later in the evening too and it’s great to have them with us for a few days.

Here are some pictures of the celebration.

Another year older!
