My Birthday

Today's my 37th birthday ... and the first thing I thought of this morning was that only a short two years ago I was with my Dad in the hospital. Man, how time flies.

My Mom gave me an extra big hug this morning. She said that I was already born by that time (7:30am) and wished me "muitos anos de vida, saude e amor" (many years of life, health and love). Boy, did the tears start flowing. Gotta love my Mommy ... she's not sappy by any stretch of the imagination, but every once in awhile she comes out with something that forces me to realize that time is precious, and life is too short.

Here's to a happy birthday to myself ... and much love to my family and friends.
