spring celebrations

Today my first crocus came up, only a few days after spring solstice on Saturday. Sunday was my birthday, I think my best so far. Got to stay in bed longer while Leighton was with Lilly, then Leighton made me breakfast and after that he presented me with an adventure-game of gifts he'd prepared for me. Very fun. I had a morning walk in the sunshine with my friend Amanda after that, then lunch out all of us at a cafe in town. While Lilly had her afternoon nap, I got a massage (and it felt wonderful). Then Leighton and I took Lilly over to her friend Anna for a playdate while we got to go out for a dinner-date (our second so far, after Leighton's mom was here in the fall). We went to Chapati, an Indian restaurant in town, ate all our food and shared a bottle of wine; it was lovely. To round it all off, we had Ben & Jerry ice cream while watching an HBO show after Lilly had fallen asleep (Chubby Hubby and Karamel Sutra). Couldn't be better.

My thanks to friends and family for cards, gifts, and greetings! You helped made my day extra special!
