A Happy Day

Twenty six years ago today, at the Newton Wellesley hospital in Boston, Massachusetts I had just given birth to the second of my beautiful boys.







Although today he has been out working on the river all day. When he comes home there will be cake...


Because you are never too old for chocolate buttons and magic stars!



Happy Birthday Sam!
