Tyler Did My Birthday Right
Yesterday was my birthday. As an only child, my birthday has always been surprisingly low-key. I had a couple parties as a kid, but I've never been one for crowds. However...Everyone deserves a day that is all about them. That is the purpose of birthday celebrations. I try not to be a spoiled brat, but one day a year I want something special. And Tyler delivered.
First of all, Tyler and I are gearing up to go on a ten day vacation. (More on that in a later post, I promise!) Because of this, Tyler has a heinous work schedule. He had to work 7:30 to 6:30 yesterday, and let me remind you that he is not a morning person. When I came home from work, Tyler was preparing my favorite meal--Buffalo wings with homemade bleu cheese dressing. He also made a beautiful, tasty salad. (Tyler makes the best salads, by the way.)
I believe the upcoming vacation is enough of a gift, but I knew Tyler would get me a little something anyway. He gave me more than I expected: Two kinds of facial cleanser, three kinds of face masks, a set of magnetic hair rollers, a giant ass Reese's peanut butter Easter egg, and a perfectly worded card that made me tear up. My man knows me so well.
No birthday would be complete without cake and candlelight. Tyler made sure I had both because I needed to make my wish. I'm on a roll since last year. (Since it came true, there's no need to keep it a secret. I wished to meet the love of my life in 2015.) I won't tell you my wish this year, but I bet you can guess it!
This was the final product! (Please excuse the blurriness. I am a terrible photographer.)
I proceeded to stuff my face with wings. (LOOK AT THEM!!!) Then Tyler and I watched Quantum Leap, made passionate love, and then fell asleep in each others' arms. It is by far the best birthday I have ever had. I look forward to all the birthdays yet to come. And I hope I can make his birthday (in four days!) just as special.
