Well… It’s here! Your girl is 40 today!
Today is THE day… It’s here… No getting away from it now.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME
HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!
Yep, peeps. Midlife Crisis Blogging at The Dutch Files is to commence today, as yours truly has turned the big 4.0. today!
I will be off for a birthday dinner tonight, with The Mom, The Sis, The BIL, The Lill Niece and The Littler Niece AND…
* drumroll *
The Kid! Even though he is spending a 1.5 week midterm break with his dad I get to take The Kid to my birthday dinner as well. That might sound weird to some people, like a total “Duh” thing, but we try to not break up the routine of a stay at one parent for activities with the other parent. Mostly because we’ve learned that this way it works best for The Kid. However, we made an exception this time for my 40th birthday dinner. I am picking him up at the end of the afternoon, take him to the dinner with me, he will stay here overnight and goes back to his The Ex’s tomorrow morning. Best Birthday Present Ever! I am so happy he will be home for a day as I am missing him like crazy!
* * *
Of course, on this day, we are all missing someone else like crazy as well. My birthday will always be connected to the day that Lisa passed away. I will never forget about that. Ever. So in the midst of all the birthday fun I will be thinking of her, The Dude and her beautiful daughters.
* smooch * at you and everyone that is dear to you, Lisa!
You are missed, very much!

It’s amazing to me that you’re 40 because you do not look it at all. You are a gorgeous, warm, intelligent, funny woman, and I wish you all the best that life has to offer. Happy birthday!

You are still a gorgeous woman that I would shamelessly pursue if (1) I was single (2) I was Dutch and (3) I was 20 years younger. Have a fantabulous birthday.
