Happy Birthday to Me?

The kids decided to celebrate by getting up at 6 this morning. That's a new record for them. I really like Seattle, but I'm not digging the fourteen hours of daylight we're having. It's not even summer yet. Actually, I'm not even sure what time they really got up, since S-Boogie was already dressed and everything by the time she woke me up at six. All I know is that she'd better take a nap today or we're both going to go crazy.

Happy birthday, FoxyJ! I, too, hope S-Boogie and LD take naps for you. I look forward to those almost more than I look forward to nursery after sacrament meeting.

Happy Birthday! Kids always seem to know when it is your birthday or Mother's day. They always either wake up super early or manage to be sick all through the night. :)
Hope you have a great day.

Happy Birthday! We celebrated the daylight this week by aluminum foiling the windows. So tacky yet effective.

Happy, happy birthday. I can empathize on the kids being up...Ginta "Monster" is ALWAYS up at 6:00, and doesn't go back for a nap until 10:00, so life is fun, especially with Marko not sleeping until 3:00AM. GRRRR.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

As has been said many times, but still with more than four hours to go, at least in my time zone, Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Jessie. I hope it was wonderful.

By the way, my word verification started with "fxj..." I think it knows who you are.

The magic hour of the beginning of FoxyJ--10 pounds!! The midwife weighed her three times.

Happy, Happy Blog-day Foxy Dear

Tomorrow marks the second anniversary of my blog. I had no idea where my life would go when I started this blog, and it's fun for me to read back through the archives and remember feelings and events that I have already forgotten. I think the most surprising thing about blogging that I have discovered is the sense of community. I have about fifty blogs that I follow somewhat regularly; many of them are people I haven't ever met in person. I still consider them to be my friends. I've been very grateful for all the virtual support I've received from so many people who don't really even "know" me. Miss Nemesis recently celebrated her blog's special day by asking lurkers to come out of the woodwork and reveal who they were and how they found her blog. She got 52 comments. If you want to make my day, see if you can top her numbers. Maybe then I can change my blognym to "Queen of the Universe".

Coming Out in Public

A little over 6 years ago I was on my mission in Madrid. I was transferred to new area at the same time as another elder. I remember asking him if was really from Hawaii, since he was so tall and blonde. We ended up serving together in the same district for nearly seven and a half months and had a lot of good times together. He was actually nice to the sisters and a hard worker, without being too zealous and overbearing. I knew he was going home just a month before me and planning on being an English major when he got back to BYU. When I was transferred out of that area, we exchanged emails and addresses and promised to get back in touch some day, like I did with a lot of other missionaries. I got home in January and started trying to contact some of the people I'd been friends with back in the mission. I emailed this particular elder and found out that he had gone to the computer lab that very day in order to email me. We started emailing each other and talked on the phone a few t...
