Wonderful day

I had a wonderful birthday yesterday. The day started out nicely and got even better quickly when Rob presented me with 12 long-stem red roses at my desk. He doesn't do that often, so when he does, it's extra special. I left work early to take Emily to an orthodontist appt. - hard to believe that she'll only have her braces on for 13 months. Then we picked up Sam and met Rob at Johnny Carino's for supper. It was so nice to have some down time with the family. We're so rushed these days with all of Emily's activities and our busy work schedules. After dinner we shopped at the mall for about an hour and a half and then went home. We rested there for 30 minutes and then started getting ready for bed. It was so nice to relax!

Today is the 65th anniversary of the bombing at Pearl Harbor. Rob and I watched the movie on TV this past weekend. I cried quite a bit during it.
