Very Special Birthday!

My birthday was January 31st, I turned 46! Wow how ever did that happen LOL! So I am sitting at the kitchen table and the door bell rings, what to my wondering eyes did appear?? Beautiful flowers from my youngest son. They are so beautiful so I wanted to share them with everyone. I just want to say its not the flowers that I love, although I do love them but the card that he wrote to me. Me the big cry baby that I am sat here all day and cried every time I read the card, this is what it said. My son is just 21 years old.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING
YOU'VE DONE TO GIVE ME THE
BEST LIFE POSSIBLE.
IT MAKES ME VERY PROUD TO SAY
I'M YOUR SON.
I LOVE YOU.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM,
LOVE,
MATT & MADISON (MY GRANDDAUGHTER)

Ohhh, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, Lorene! Those flowers are beautiful, but the card of course is the best part. What a thoughtful son! You raised him well, and he appreciates it. Wonderful!

The card made me tear up, too, because you know I'm such a big sap!

Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting! Yes, we should eat Mexican food and practice our piano, but we can stop when we find a song that makes up both cry! LOL!

Best to you, dear lady!

What beautiful flowers!! Happy Belated Birthday to you!!!
Thanks for stopping by for a visit and the sweet comment, the one tray was still in its wrapping and in the box so it must not have been used. I think I am going to have to get a 2nd job at Hobby Lobby I spend most of money there anyway and I do spend hours at a time when I go.
Enjoy your day!!!
