My Birthday

I loved my birthday this year. I totally got spoiled and had a lot of fun. I got curtains, a rug, cups, a calender, and a new bed spread. I would post pictures but I am sooooo lazy these days. I love all of my things but the best was the cards this year. I love heart felt cards. Krista, my foster daughter, wrote me the sweetest card and I wasn't even expecting it. It is moments, like reading that card, that make all the hard work in foster care worth it. Curtis also wrote a lot of nice things in his card to me and even little Ivy picked out a card for me and colored in it. From the looks of it it took her a really long time and it just meant a lot. She keeps asking me if I liked it. We went to dinner with Natalie and Aaron at red lobster and it was a lot of fun.

I really can't believe it has only been one year since my last birthday. That might sound strange but so much has happened in the last year. My last birthday I was in the doctors office with Ivy getting her tested for a bunch of things. A couple days later we found out she has celiac disease. Then we had Cove, moved 2 times, and then all of my medical stuff. I feel like it has been five years. I just hope that this next year is more mellow.
