I can't believe it was five years ago yesterday I went into labor and our beautiful little girl Molly was born. It is hard sometimes to remember her as a baby, yet it seems like yesterday. August seems to turn into a month long birthday celebration trying to get in family visits with both of our birthdays. It is fun to share our birthdays so close to each other, and put my added years on the back burner and Molly's on the front!
It was a fun day yesterday. Jeff and I took cupcakes to her class at school (quick celebration when they have so much work to do--quite different from the preschool-but fun). She was excited to have a friend go to the local inflatables and out to dinner at her favorite local restaurant. The owner who is also a friend offered us some tickets to the local rodeo. Not something I would think of to attend on my own, but we thought we would be spontaneous and go. So outside of my box!!
When we got there the riders were on horses and the first guy we saw took a hard fall and was laying unconscious there right in front of us. A little scary to watch people come help him up. Other than that it was fun. I now want a cowboy hat and boots for Christmas. Jeff said, for the time in the next 33 years you decide to attend? I just laughed. It was a long day.
Jeff and the kids are off to the Atlanta Braves game today with my sister Catherine and her boyfriend. I am off to see Paul McCartney with 50,000 of my closest friends at Piedmont Park. I don't know that I could even name a Paul McCartney song other that a Beatles song, but I am excited to hang out with girlfriends and hear great music. I know it will be memorable.
