Twenty-Five

Well, I thought I would take a break from the "Grand Finale" portion of our vacation, and tell you all that today is my birthday.

Yay!!

I'm 25!

I love birthdays. They are so much fun and so different each year. Today promises to be a great one because so far, my morning has been very special and very sweet. I love my family and friends - they are hands down, the best.

My mom sent me an e-mail this morning telling all the details of the day I was born. She copied things out of my baby book and took pictures of things to show me. One of the pictures was this:



My feet!!

Initially, I thought, awww...my sweet little toesies.

And then I looked a little closer.

And realized....

these look like feet of a baby alien.

First of all, you may believe that I only have FOUR toes on my left foot. That is where you are wrong. I have 5. I promise. I do! I do! I swear! Wanna to come see? Don't put me in the circus just yet.

Secondly, it appears that I have "floating toes" with no connection to the foot. Now, as incredibly weird as that would be, fortunately it not true. My toes are connected in a major way contrary to popular belief....based on this picture.

And lastly - geeze louise, it looks like you could stick another toe in between my big toe and the other one on my right foot! Where did that gap come from??

And those creases look like the Grand Canyon! Wowza!!

Either the ink-stampin' guy was smokin' a little somethin' that day, or I've got some weirded out feet. Let's blame it on him.

I think I will excuse myself from work now and go stare at my feet. I should ink them now and show you guys all the changes that have taken place over the past 25 years. :)

Or not. Because that is freakish.

Okay, as bummer-ish as it to work on your birthday, I must get back slaving away. Ho hum.

I would now like to take this opportunity to let you, my dear friends and faithful readers, to wish me that happiest of birthdays and the bestest of wishes. Because I am the birthday girl. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEEEE!!!
