Brod is 36

Yesterday was Brod's Birthday.  He woke up to 4 little cherubs singing his praises - they all had to come up with 36 things they liked about him...but couldn't get passed 6.  And that was including Noah's 2 compliments that had the same meaning just said in a different way. "I like the food you make". 

To say it was an INSANE day would be an understatement. In the car & away from Brod all day sucked.  But there were highlights:
1. Phoebe & I had breakfast together - she had an assessment so was off school for the morning - at Roses in Kloof.  She visited the loo 3 times just for the novelty really of going on her own without me(we sat next to the loo entrance -Hello paranoid mom).  And can I just add how much I love going to Roses?  Where else in this area can two people have a full breakfast & tea for under R 50.00???
2. I got to visit with a friend who has recently had a hip replacement - and whom I adore - Margaret.  And we had a nice chat down memory lane.
3. I got to realise how much I adore Brod, and am so used to being around him all the time - since we work from home. 

We took the kids out for dinner in the evening - I threatened them with "No Playstation, TV or treats" if they caused any chaos at the restaurant (not a kiddie friendly restaurant you see) just before Brod got in the car...and it WORKED!~ Hooray!  It was a great night out.
