Happy Braftday

Today is, apparently, my Braftday. Julie has been writing more and more
lately, and she surprised me with this birthday message.

Julie is six and in Kindergarten, so her writing skills are actually
pretty impressive. I love sorting through her papers that she brings
home from school, especially when her teacher has her write a sentence
with the sight words the rest of the class is practicing. It is so much
fun deciphering her creative spelling to reveal her thoughts.

We will be heading out as a family for a casual dinner that I will not
have to cook, and some dessert that I will not have baked for myself,
hopefully chocolate cake!

Thanks to all the friends and family who have already sent e-mails,
texts and Facebook messages. Oh, the wonders of modern connectivity!
