Today is Ash Wednesday, which makes me feel like I should have something profound to say, but alas, I don't. Luckily, I anticipated my writer's block and decided to continue on the theme of "What I Know".
1) I know that 10 years a go, I gave birth to a perfect, tiny, pink baby boy, who I fell in love with completely. I can't believe it's been 10 years!
2) I know that it must be hard to have your birthday on Ash Wednesday, unless you have a mom who feels sorry for you and makes you a cake on Tuesday and Thursday to make up for it.
3) I know that an entire pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream (of any flavor) is not on your diet. Nor mine.
4) I know that I am terrible at dieting, fasting or anything that requires much discipline.
Happy Double-Digits, my boy!

Happy Birthday!! My birthday is in late February and commonly falls during Lent. Being Catholic, we fast (including no meat) not only on Ash Wednesday, but also on Fridays during Lent. And, since my birthday (or birthday party) happened to be on a Lenten Friday on more than a few occasions, I was always upset...until my Priest told me that Lent, like my birthday, was a celebration and that it was ok for me to eat meat on that one particular Friday. I finally got my mom to agree, after promising to abstain from meat the Thursday before! :-)
I enjoy being able to organize everything & know where everything is :) (though my man probably wishes I could share my OCD! haha He gets in trouble when he doesn't put things away in the right spot... haha)
Oh, is he ever CUTE! And you're such a good mom.
Happy Birthday!! Dieting is for the weak. Or is it the strong? Either way, it's not for me. ;)
