Josh's birthday was yesterday. I keep teasing him about being an "old man." He is now 33. Last night we went out to dinner with some friends and then tonight had some other friends over for birthday cake. Don't look too hard at the cake. I am not very happy with it. It did taste good though. 
So the deal with the cake...I slaved all day to make him a wonderful homemade german chocolate cake (his favorite...not from a box but homemade - I think I better get after his mom for that one). Well, the center of the cake fell and the frosting wasn't as thick as it should have been. Don't ask me how to fix those two problems. I don't know. So, the cake is not beautiful but very tasty. That is all that matters right?

So a year ago today Josh was in the hospital for kidney stones. We didn't know it was kidney stones at the time but in this process he was over medicated and quit breathing. I think it was the scariest thing that has ever happened to me. So now that he is 33, I am very greatful he is still plugging along with me. Through good and bad, I sure love the "old man." Happy Birthday, Josh!
