Birthday...or birth week


Emilie is a year older. And she managed to drag out the festivities for over a week. It helped that Ivy Tech decided to honor her birth with a week of Spring Break.


Siberian Iris. Not at Ivy Tech, just a sign of spring.

One present that came in the mail was supposed to be opened at once. So the puppy could start wearing it immediately.


On her birthday, Emilie slept late and then opened presents. Opening presents in bed is a bit like having breakfast in bed. But without the crumbs.


There were so many gifts . . .


That Dharma had to help open some.


Then yet another present came in the mail.


It was a shirt from Derek, in Emilie's new favorite color. (And it apparently matches Dharma's eyes, too.) Is that what business people call just-in-time inventory?

That reminds me! Have you received any mystery books in the mail?

Happy birthday week! Something is also on its way from me -- maybe it should be happy birthday month? Or happy birthday season?

And a belated happy birthday from me, too!
