I’ll admit, today I was tired.
Luckily I anticipated this and assigned all cake making to Wyatt. I also bought and wrapped all birthday gifts a while ago so all I would have to do is pull them down from the closet and we’d be ready for a fun family birthday party.
I dug in my heels extra deep and forced myself to have the energy to go downtown to the state capital, a place Calvin has been begging to go since he first learned Utah had such a place several months ago. Wyatt took us on a tour of the building and explained to the kids how the different sections of government work. It was actually quite fun, and I’m glad I forced myself to do it. I hope Calvin had a very happy birthday.
The good/bad news is no baby today. Good – no sharing birthday’s for the rest of forever. Bad – I have to wait at least one more day.
