I know it's your birthday today, but you gave me the greatest gift of all.
This morning after we ate B shaped pancakes but before you filmed a movie with your new remote controlled helicopter, we collected the eggs. Just you and me. We were pretty quiet, just going about our business of collecting and feeding.
And then you turned to me and told me you were happy. You were having the most wonderful birthday.
What more could I want? Your happiness is everything to me.
Happy birthday farmer Bren, I adore you. xx
Bye!
ps. Thank you all for your lice stories and your other embarrassing moments. I love this community. I love that we are in this together. I love that you made me feel so much better about everything. xx

ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to notice when you are happy- and even nicer to say it out loud. Did Bren get a remote controlled helicopter?? Confused about the movie with helicopter thing?
ReplyDeleteHappy day to you farmer Bren. I think your wife adores you, exactly how it should be. Those quiet times alone doing simple things mean so much don't they. it's the same at this house. Jx
ReplyDeleteA helicopter??? How big is your farm?

ReplyDeleteHey, is that a cousin in the teepee with your girls? She looks just as I imagine you would have looked as a child. She's got to be the daughter of one of your sibs, surely?
