Flowers

It has been a tradition since I was in school that I got flowers (roses) for my birthday. My mom had always sent me flowers to school. Such an awesome surprise every time. I cna remember in elementary school coming in from recess and looking at my desk and there they where. My birthday flowers. They always had roses in them and sometimes they where in a basket or vase. They where always beautiful and came with a card that said "Happy Birthday Crissi! I love you, Mom". My mom sent me flowers up until the year I got married. She has sent them to me in High school and college. When I got married to JM my mom said to him, every year I have given her roses for her birthday and now it is your turn. And so every year on my birthday he has given me flowers, roses (except for one year I got lilies...) So this morning I woke up early b/c I had to be somewhere for the kids school and when I went into the dark kitchen and turned the light on there they where...red long stem roses! My birthday flowers that he never forgets to get!!! What a blessing. I am happy to say that I have done the same for RRR on her birthday. Ever year since she was born I have given her flowers, so much fun to think someday she will be looking back and thinking about getting flowers for us since she was little!!!
