Today is Matt's 37th birthday, and he was able to be home to enjoy dinner and a treat with all of us. It seems obvious and simple for one's birthday, but with him being a fellow and having such a demanding schedule it's rare for all five of us to sit down together for a meal. We enjoyed chicken fajitas and homemade chocolate tacos! I wanted to do something different and special in lieu of a cake and luckily the tacos turned out great and were delish! The kids enjoyed making a card and writing their thoughts about their Daddy, which included his love of skateboarding (what?) and his birthday wish for a new x-ray book (totally unprompted). It was so fun to watch their excitement and pride when doing these things for their Daddy's birthday, and even more fun seeing Matt celebrate with all of us! Happy Birthday to a great husband, Daddy, brother, son, friend and surgeon. We love you!
