Momma's birthday ~ 7-3-11

We spent our usual Sunday's at The Payne's. It was an extra special since we were celebrating my birthday on July 5th.  This year was especially difficult. My mom passed away 8 days after her 33rd birthday. Although unfounded fear, the fear of that happening to me was definitely felt. Rationally I know that I don't have rheumatoid arthritis like my mom, or had pneumonia 3 times in the last year, or taking steroids and anti-cancer drugs for treatment, but the fear was still there. It seemed like a weight had been lifted as the time passed by.

To pass the day we enjoyed lounging in the pool, opening presents, eating good food, and enjoying great company.

Braydon enjoying a bottle of milk in a cool pool. What a way to enjoy the day.

Mmmm, carrot cake, my favorite.

Wishing many more years for happiness and spending my special day with the one's I love.
