My husband's away on business and it's the typical 'Kennedy zoo' around here, but this morning my son's surprised me by remembering that it's my birthday (possibly prompted by the 7 a.m. phone call their dad made from some airport to remind them?)
Here's the best part: Over breakfast, my boys informed me they're taking me for dinner tonight. Their dad left money in an envelope and after a heated discussion behind a closed bedroom door this morning they've decided they're taking me to (drum roll) ... Joey's Seafood, where, as my 9 year old said with a proud grin, "We want you to order whatever you want!"
So I have a seafood date tonight and I get to spend the entire day writing a scene I woke up thinking about this morning, a scene I can't wait to work on. Who could ask for more?

What, you're probably 30 this year, right? Then have 30 little shrimp at that seafood place and have a blast with your kids
who sound great.

Happy Birthday .
I take the chance to congratulate you and also thank you for your book the Penny Tree.
I'm in France and I spent the last few days reading it.
Have a lovely time with your sons.
Hope you had a lovely birthday, fellow Gemini. Mine was today and I got a cool blender with a spout. I also had a chance to finish your book. It was lovely. I heart Louie.
Thanks for all your kind comments everyone. Birthdays mean little at my age, but I did have a wonderful night with my boys, who mean the world to me :)
Cecile -- how nice to have you comment all the way from France. Thank you for popping by.
Chumplet -- I'm glad you enjoyed it. I heart Louie, too!
