This year we are on different continents, major different time zones, no football cookies (although I did send him chocolate chip cookies and he got those 2 weeks ago), no dinner with family, and no football tickets (for his birthday at least). I'm a major birthday fan, I love to celebrate and make a big deal out of it, so it's really hard for me to not be able to control any of the celebrations. I can't even control if I can talk to him to tell him Happy Birthday. So, needlesstosay, I'm struggling today. I want to be with him, to help him have an amazing day. But I can't.
Since he has no use for most things you could get on your birthday, I packed him up a huge box of candy and fun, silly stuff. He still hasn't gotten it yet, even though I sent it a month ago. So I'm sad he doesn't even have his presents on his birthday.
I'll post pics of all the fun stuff in the care package once he gets it, I don't want to ruin the surprise for him :) But here's a sneak peek. Ok ok, it's not really a sneak peek. Just some boxes filled with fun!!! So stay tuned because I'll do a whole post of all the fun-ness. I also told him he has to take pics with/or using some of the items in the box :)
I really hope you get to talk to him today and that he receives his gifts very soon. Happy birthday to him!
