week 68

I can barely remember if we did anything this week. I do remember Eric traveling one night and me crawling into bed by 9pm and sleeping so soundly for oh so many hours. It was quite lovely.

Oh wait, it was Eric's 40th birthday this past week!!! We've been celebrating since January 4th but his actual bday was the 13th. He got lots of loves and well wishes from family, friends and co-workers. He had a full day of work stuff including a client dinner (boo) so we did dinner the next night. I think he thoroughly enjoyed his 40th bday and is excited for what his 40th year will bring.

We showed up at church today and this wonderful sweet lady had a gift for Eric for his bday. I've met and spoken with her a few times and in passing told her back in October that Eric would be 40 in January and he is a hockey fanatic. She gave him this really great hockey sweatshirt and adorable ABC hockey book for children. We were both blown away by her thoughtfulness...





 
I think I've mentioned before that I teach the 10 and 11 year old kids at church. Today, I also had the 8 and 9 year old kids. And I only had boys today. They were getting a bit restless so I decided to ask them all for suggestions for boy names for the baby. One kid raised his hand immediately and was so excited. I asked him for his suggestion... "farthead". Yep, that is what he said. I think my response was "interesting". What a funny bunch. They keep me very entertained each week.

why is it that your 8-11 yr old boys are no different than the 12 yr old boys I have in Sunday School?

I love that eric is 40.
I don't know why.
