eighteen on the eighteenth
Wednesday, September 18, 2013
Did you know it's a wonder year?! That's what I heard! Turning your age on your birthday day?
So, THIS was even a MORE fun birthday!
Of course, there were 18 balloons.
The place mat that welcomed the day.
The chocolate cake that was requested and made. I forgot to save some white frosting for the name so thought quickly and came up with mini chocolate chips to write the name. (I think it worked okay... he loved it.)
And this year, I did something a little different. And a little special. And dug deep in my heart for the top 18 things I love about Charlie. (It took me about 18 seconds.)Love these days.

ReplyDelete18 is also a significant and lucky number in Judaism. In fact, donations to Jewish charitable organizations (or gifts to Jews) are often made in multiples of 18. :)

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your 18 yr. old!
ReplyDeleteI missed this post yesterday - Happy Birthday to Charlie! Your gift is incredibly wonderful - he's lucky to be blessed with you as his mom!
ReplyDeleteGoodness, I just realised my husband turned twenty-nine on the 29th this year, and neither of us noticed! Shameful.
ReplyDeleteHope Charlie is enjoying his nineteenth year! What a very lovely way to start it. A friend of my mum's made her a necklace with forty beads for her fourtieth birthday. It was beautiful.
September 18 is just more than a month away I think we can see a feature about the same birthday.
