Going in to this day, I wasn't expecting a lot. I was kind of devastated because it was Braden's field day and I had just found out I wasn't allowed to use one of my vacation days because we had to give seniors their exams early and subs were not allowed to do that (whatever!!!!!). I cried and was so upset because I had already missed his school's Mother's Day Tea because of a stupid yearbook deadline and now this.....
And then my department chair said she would cover my fourth period class so I could stay a little longer after my lunch (which I had planned to spend at his school....a whole 30 minutes :p). Braden was sooooooooooooooooooooo happy to see me and even happier that I was getting to have lunch with him!
And then I had another surprise for him:
He was going to spend the rest of the day with me at my school! He was a little overwhelmed by my kids at first but was so happy to be there sharpening pencils, playing on the computer, writing on the white board, etc. One of my seniors immediately came over to help him and spent the whole class with him. So sweet!
After school we picked up Landri and Jay and went to celebrate my bday at Outback :)
Braden discovered a l<3ve of Bacon Cheese Fries
Landri eating some "Mac and Cheese"
Making Silly Faces
On the way back to the house, we drove by our lot to see if anything had changed. We do this about 2x a week lol.........But Jay had been there the day before to turn in a check for our upgrade selections and nothing had changed. But it was my birthday and OMGGGGGGGGG they had "broken ground"!!!! The frame for the foundation was there:
ON MY BIRTHDAY!!!! Is that not the coolest thing you've ever heard?! Needless to say both of us were screeching in excitement and the kids thought it was awesome to finally see SOMETHING happening to our plot :)
After that awesome moment, we went home and had some cake and ice cream!
Happy Birthday to ME!!!
Make a Wish!
