it's not the gifts . . .

that matter to me. It's why it's always hard for me to give my husband a list of things that I want for my birthday.


My birthday is a week from today. I sent him this list in a message on facebook.

Gifts I wouldn't mind having:
a new camera
a class with my honey at Ramekins
a day at the beach
a visit to Berkeley
a picture of our three kids
getting my nails done
going to Apple Hill(?) with my parents & the boys
amazon gift card for Kindle books
a visit to that Italian restaurant with you & the youngest (the place you went to as a boy)
a phone call or skyping with Artist Girl while I'm blowing out the candles





For myself, it really is all about my kids & my husband. Anytime that we do stuff together is icing on the cake - so to speak.

Happy early birthday.

I keep an Amazon list of things I'd like to have, but that I don't need enough to buy right away. Keeping that wishlist makes birthdays and christmas much easier for my husband.

That's a wonderful list--and I think you deserve it all!!
