two more firsts

sara's birthday and father's day -- all day long without glenn.we started this sunday with a birthday morning celebration a la sara/glenn cooper style featuring breakfast (morgan and i made her pink chocolate chip waffles) in the jacuzzi. friends and family stopped by to give sara happy birthday wishes. one of her besties decorated our front yard with birthday balloons and rose petals! the bday girl loves her birthday and relished in the attention and happiness. i sensed solemn moments for her today, but even in this big pile of shit, she was able to seek out smiles and laughter. thank god.morgan mainly focused her energies on her sister today. and after a long day of sun, hot tub and an extraordinary amount of sweeties, morgan let go a bit and cried on todd's shoulder.the three of us, without making any serious plans, looked ahead to next year - we discussed maybe observing two mother's day : ) good for me! but, hmmm...we'll see.perhaps the anticipation of today was worse or maybe we were mentally prepared for what this day would look like, regardless, it was a long day without glenn. and that is just the way it is.  

tomorrow is a new day with so much to do. going to Circuit Works at 7a.
