This has definitely been a birthday that is not all about me, and I'm completely okay with that. The kids and I arrived at Andrew's parents last night, and we've been as helpful as we can be today. I'm not going to complain about having us all together. I had wanted to go out to dinner, but my mother-in-law didn't, and honestly, there is a ridiculous amount of food here, so we just ate at home. I asked for ice cream, and I enjoyed the meal.
Additionally, my grandmother was taken to the hospital overnight. I'm still not entirely certain what has happened, but although they are keeping her tonight for observation, they expect she will be sent home tomorrow.
It feels strange to say that I'm 48 now. It doesn't feel that anything has changed, but this is definitely a birthday I won't forget!
