I am starting to hate these birthdays for my children. I never really minded my own birthday...I always said "it is better than the alternative." But today, Timmy turned 17, and that makes me sad, because I still remember him as that screaming baby.
And while I am happy he is here to celebrate with us, it is hard because both Jack and Anna are not here. He and Lily were off today, so we went to Fil A Bagel for lunch, and then I drove him up to see a movie with a friend. And then tonight, we celebrated with the meal he wanted...pasta, followed by a special cake--his favorite ice cream cake! Not all that great of a celebration on this gloomy day, but so happy we could all be together for it!
