Matt's Birthday


Way too much food - isn't that the fun of it?

Today was Matt's birthday. Too bad he is on an OBGYN rotation so he had to work all day. He has had some amazing experience, but who cares if you get to deliver a baby by yourself, you want the day off!! Or at least I wanted him to! However, I was able to give him breakfast in bed (well, the couch - Connor kicked him out of bed at 4:00 am). What a happy birthday to have Connor be the first person you see that early!! Anyway, when he did get home from work we got a huge order from Panda and Sonic drinks. Then we opened his gifts. Sadie found a red box and put masking tape in the place of a ribbon - she is so creative. I had no idea what was inside. She wanted it to be a surprise. So, when Matt opened it is was a picture and two 1 dollar bills. It is her little money. It melted our hearts. She really wanted to give him something from her. So, happy birthday Matt - you are the best father and husband and we are all blessed by even knowing you and having you in our lives.
