Birthday Wishes

Children are a gift that make a parent's life complete and three such gifts have been bestowed upon me. My three children are a blessing to me; they are all independent adults who I am proud to mother.

May has always been a busy month for family events, in this case birthdays. May 11th is the day the eldest child, Jessica, entered the world, kicking and screaming all the way. May 9th is the birthday of child two, son one, FJ, also known as Frank -- a middle child who is a supportive mediator in all things controversial. A "driven" person who stays up longer then he should to get the most from each day, he rises early to get a move on. As in all "big" birthdays, the celebration begins and continues for days -- this 30th birthday is no different. After a big celebratory breakfast, a Cubs game in one's personal box with other party goers, and then drinks at a Wrigleyville hotspot, hosted by older sister Jessica, the party moves north. Drinks, dinner, and birthday cake are essentials at all birthday celebrations and this one is no different. FJ - you are a delightfully happy person who is kind and caring. Enjoy your day -- er weekend. Happy big Birthday FJ.
