Thank you all SO much for the nice birthday wishes!!! You all are wonderful friends ~ I love you! I'm sorry to respond so late. I haven't been on the boards for quite a while. My birthday was very nice. DH took me to Las Vegas for the weekend. We had a very nice lunch at Canaletto's at the Venetian. And no, I didn't have a birthday cake with ice cream, only a chocolate eclair. It was great to spend time with my hubby although I missed the kids so much. I know I won't book a vacation on my birthday without them again.
