It’s a big day in our house today.
Maddie had a birthday…
And I got my award…
For those of you who are dying to see what a cheapskate can buy for under $65 (shoes and jewelery included)…
It was a lovely day, all in all. My presentation went smashingly well (despite the HUGE pressure of presenting in front of a room full of professional communicators), there were no technical glitches with the multi-media part of the presentation, and Maddie was happy with her pink cupcakes.
(I think I deserve Supermom of the Year award, too, for pulling off made-from-scratch cupcakes with pink icing AND sparkles for her whole grade 1 class! It’s probably a little guilt, though, for being in India over her 6th birthday. Oops – guess I just lost Supermom status.)
