Moira had a half day today and next week. Wow - school's almost over! My baby will be going to FIRST grade next year! ::sniffle::

In local news - Father Allegedly Left Son in Hot Car Allegedly? The security guard FOUND the baby, 18 months old, IN his car. The sick bastard - his car had reached a high of 130 degrees. He says he forgot to drop his son off at his grandmother's house. How on EARTH do you forget you child is in the car? You don't. Unless you want to forget.

Mom came down around 3pm. She brought some steaks for dinner. So, I whipped up a marinade for the steaks, made a huge salad, rice and homemade icing for the cake. Everything was SO yummy! The kids loved the cake. Paul and my brother got me flowers. They are just beautiful. My Mom gave me the box set of all 4 hardback Harry Potter books! Woohoo! I have read them, albeit via borrowed books, but now I can read them again! I also got some pearls added to my ongoing strand of pearls. Martha Stewart gardening clogs(which are very comfortable), more books, some hat boxes and a few cool knickknacks. I had a perfectly lovely day today. Thank you all for your ecards, snail mail cards, comments and emails. You have all made my birthday very special!
