Birthdays

I told Don a few days ago that while I was looking forward to Kate DiCamillo, I wasn’t particularly looking forward to today. Not because I’m anti-Birthday and dreading getting older (seriously ladies, cut the drama. You get older every day). But I told him I was very aware of the fact that Joanna wouldn’t be here. No annual Facebook post about how much she loves being my bestie, just a bunch of memories to read through. And no book-themed gift. Although had she been here, she would have been SO excited about me meeting Kate. So no, I wasn’t looking forward to today and I was glad I was kept busy and not really even have time to think about it.

But M remembered. And he sent me a Happy Birthday text. I love that kid.

Maybe I’ll send him some yarn...
