Michael's 40th Birthday ! September 16, 2008


We tried to give Michael a happy birthday. I had thought for long what to get him, but there was not anything that he needed which we could afford to buy ( I know he needs a big house for us ) . I just made his favorite breakfast, French toasts and Spaghetti for lunch. It is not like Michael is a big eater, but he is picky and there are not many things that he likes to eat.

River and Relic were excited about the cards that they had for Daddy. They came out of their bedroom and gave the cards to Michael telling Happy Birthday, Daddy ! They were also very excited about the gift that they had for him. After I wrapped the present, was looking for a nice bow to put on the wrapped present. River didn't know what I was looking for in the closet but he had his own thoughts of decorating Daddy's present. He found an old blue bow and was trying to stick it to the present. It was so cute what he was doing that I decided to use just that bow to decorate the present.

My real gift to Michael was a date ! We had not gone out as a couple for more than 2 years ( The last time was Michael's 20th high school reunion and my brother in law Jay and his wife Jeanne took care of the boys ) I had asked a friend of ours to take care of the boys when we went out to an Italian restaurant Bella Verona which is Michael's favorite place . The boys had a great playmate , Maeve who is 3 and is great to share and play with the boys. Sarah told that Relic did not have an easy time adjusting not having us there. But when we went back after less than 2 hours, the boys were sitting at the table eating dinner with Maeve nicely. They did like what Sarah had made for them

When we came back home we had the cake and the boys were excited to blow the candles of 4 and 0 with their Daddy.
