Today we not only celebrate Mother's Day, but more importantly, it's Dan's birthday! Wow, 25 years old! And both his father and I couldn't be more proud of him. He was always the perfect child growing up (seriously, he was!). And we are extra proud of what he's accomplished in the last few years--earning his Masters of Architecture, landing a job in his field, and having his own apartment. He is truly a fine, young man and I know Ed found peace knowing he was settled in and doing fine. And I am so blessed that we have a relationship where I can count on him and know he'll be there when I need him.
In celebration of Dan's birthday, we spent time together yesterday and went shopping to get part of his birthday present. We then had a nice dinner at Carabba's. After we got home, we watched the movie "The Guilt Trip"--very appropriate for the combination Mother's Day and Dan's birthday. We laughed very hard and would recommend it for any mother/son who have a close relationship.
Today we'll see family to celebrate both Mother's Day and Dan's birthday. The weekends are way too short, but I'll enjoy every minute of it.
May you have a wonderful Mother's Day and Happy 25th Birthday, Dan! Love you lots!!
