Coffee

 It is difficult to fathom that tomorrow morning I will be the Momom to a 12 year old! At the same time, the aches and popping that my body experiences each morning reminds me of my age, so I really shouldn't be surprised by the passage of time. Regardless, the next few days are all about Timmy and I'm ready to celebrate.

To say that he is excited about his birthday would be an understatement. He has been counting down for over a month while dropping not-so-subtle hints about coveting an electric dirt bike.  I'm not going to drop any spoilers, but I suspect that he will be delighted with his birthday. At least, that is our goal.

 Even though his birthday isn't until tomorrow, our family has been in celebration mode for a few days. Each morning I have been surprising Timmy with a favorite breakfast as we countdown to Friday. Each evening he has been happily swinging on his new swing set in the backyard, delighted with his new set up. 

Today is going to be busy. My schedule is packed and I am going to all of my energy to get through the day.  My energy and probably a few more cups of coffee.  Have a great day!
