happy birthday, mom
Today is my mom’s 50th birthday! She’s over the initial terror that she has been alive for fifty years, so I feel it’s ok to put her real age. Fuck feeling old, she’s beautiful and has done a million things during her life so far.
One of my favorite photos taken at one of my mom’s favorite places on earth- she & my brother, hanging out in the West Indies, eating some fresh-caught lobster at picnic tables:
Photo taken at Wagamama, probably her favorite restaurant of all time despite eating there maybe 2x during their trip to visit me in London.
During a long stretch of extended-family time:
Today we’re spending the day bowling, eating sushi & cake, and enjoying the first round of attic cleaning. Fun for all ages!
Mom, I really hope you don’t read this blog, because your surprise would be ruined! For your birthday you’re getting one of these:
BULLMASTIFF PUPPY!!!!!
Cuddle the crap out of her while you can, because when you’re asleep there’s a chance I’ll steal her.
