One More Year Older...

Today technically started yesterday, I went to the doctor to see if I had the flu and found out that I had an upper respiratory infection and I was prescribed an anabiotic with a steroid. I didn't know that I probably shouldn't take the steroid at night and I took it about 9 PM last night. I tried to go to sleep at 11, then at 3am. All of these attempts failed miserably! I ended up staying up all night long! I have to say that I did get a lot of stuff done! I got all kinds of caught up with my web design course. (I'm staying up later tonight to finish up one section.) I ended up getting really spazzed out because of the steroids and I haven't been to sleep since I woke up at 9 AM yesterday morning! I will never let them take steroids again! I'm hoping that I can sleep more tonight.
​my morning breakfast with some delicious donuts that Jessica picked up instead of birthday cake since we just celebrated her birthday this Saturday before. They were fantastic! Once I was able to calm down a little bit I got all of my things that I needed to get done in my building finished before noon!

At five we headed to my dad's house for a birthday party with my mom's side of the family. It was very nice. Ms. Kay fried me some huge shrimp! My favorite of course!! Everyone ate like they were pigs! It was so so so so good. We brought a whole lot of stuff home including my beautiful birthday cake that was made with homemade icing. We all took some silly photos with props that Ms. Kay had gotten for me. It was probably the best birthday I could ever ask for since my mom has passed away. My birthday gift to myself is getting a hedgehog and that soon will be becoming reality! Stay tuned for more info my beautiful little girl.

more pictures from tonight! I had a wonderful birthday even though this will be my second birthday without my mom present physically. I miss her every single day and I wish you was here to see how much I've grown since she left. :(
