My Birthday Party

My birthday party was held in an assisted living facility.  I was one of the four people who had their birthdays in the one month.  The date was July 12th.  it was a great party one that was with a birthday cake and other things that are usually found at a birthday party.  I got a card for my birthday.  The festivities were just great.  They sang happy birthday to me.  The greatest gift of all was that my brother (though not biological) was there in attendance.  I had a 13year old boy to make my cake for me.  He was the son of a CNA  that worked here at the time.  it was chocolate and had some candles on it.  There was no dancing going on though.  I am in a wheelchair and can't walk.  So, i didn't do any dancing at all.  The other people were there for me.  Our Administrator was not there though.

It was on a Sunday.  The sun was shining on that day.  It was up in the 90's.  The trees were all in bloom and really full.  There were birds singing outside the window.  I will keep it forever within my heart about how the day went.  It was a beautiful day.  The night of the birthday party was a good one.  i watched some TV and worked on my computer for a time.  There is nothing like being to yourself when you want to be and I was alone for a time.  Right after the birthday party was over. There was no room to cry at my birthday party.  Except tears of joy.  However, I couldn't cry if i wanted.  I haven't been able to cry for years now.  The birthday party was all it was cracked up to be.  A great all around day was had by the five of us.
