"Happy Birthday, Mommy!"



The other day was my birthday and these flowers were a present from my son. Levi had gone down town to run some errands and taken Michael with him. I had a headache, so I took the opportunity to lay down for a little while. The two of them had been gone longer than I had expected, when my bedroom door opened. Michael came in with a huge smile on his face and these flowers. "Happy Birthday, Mommy!" he said and gave me a big kiss. Levi then came in to explain how the flowers came about. This is how the conversation at the store went.
Levi: What do you want to get Mommy for her birthday?
(No response from Michael as they continue to walk around the store and happen to pass the craft section with its silk flowers.)
Michael: Flowers!
Levi: Do you want to get Mommy flowers?
Michael: Yes, flowers.
Levi: Okay, what color should we get?
Michael: Pink! (as he's pulling them off the shelf)
I just wanted everyone to know what sweet boys I have, and tell them Thank You for making me feel so special on my birthday.
