Today is Michael's 14th birthday. He is growing up way too fast. I am sure that is what all moms say each year as their children have their birthdays.
We had breakfast in the morning and I baked him brownies. He does not like birthday cake and chose to have a brownie cake this year. We then headed over to the Verizon store so that he could pick out his new phone. He picked a touch screen phone that opens up to a full keyboard. It has lots of applications like IM, email, music, videos, etc. He was very happy with his birthday present.
After the phone he wanted a Qdoba burrito so we stopped for lunch there and then headed to the movies where we saw Watchmen.
We had dinner that night at Kobe Steakhouse at Westport Plaza. The chef performed many tricks as he prepared the meal on the table before us.
It was a great day and it was wonderful to spend the day with my son and help him celebrate his birthday. It seems as he gets older that we have fewer and fewer outings together so I was very thankful for this day together.
Happy Birthday Michael!
