The month of celebration begins...

Yeah!!! What a magnificent day...I slept in today because of a bad head cold (not so fun)...but by the time I got up, I already had a text from my dad and four voice mails wishing me a happy birthday. Throughout the day, people I know and love showered me with affection. A guy who works for me got me flowers...Matt brought Mateo to work carrying a Happy Birthday Frog Balloon Bouquet and some yellow tulips...and I connected with my old boss Barry. Then, Nona hosted a fabulous feast for dinner...Alaskan King Crab topped off with Lemon Chiffon Pie. There were presents to be had, and cards from friends.

But the best part of today, the thing that makes me smile the most? It begins twenty days of celebration in our family...we go from my birthday (Feb 5) to Valentine's Day to our wedding anniversay (Feb 15--6 years this year) to the first day we met Mateo (February 18) to Matt's Birthday (Feb 25)...this month is for celebrating life, and love, and family.

Here's hoping the joy spills from this day to the next, and the next, and the next...

Love from Silverton, Sarah & Matt & Mateo
