I completed my 40th trip around the sun today. I have nothing profound to say about it, except that this is certainly a moment in time! In the morning, I struggled to get the kids through their schoolwork (they weren't more cooperative in honor of my birthday). After lunch, I went up to the office and did work for my own online classes. Before supper, I took walk. We had delicious stir-fry on the deck, with yummy chocolate cupcakes for dessert. Then we opened presents, and Simon got me lots of treasures, while Alice made a chart of all our ages.
