Today was an uneventful, usual day as any given Thursdays… with kids rides, dog duties and ongoing kitchen renovations.  For dinner, I made my caviar pasta (extra creamy) then my parents stopped by with a birthday cake. Happy birthday to moi. 

with Shane… meanwhile

Chloe’s working hard! Lol, we felt tiny bit guilty and decided not to tell her. 

Shane’s Christmas gift from us was Knicks game and it is today!
The boys went to the game and I sacrificed myself by waiting for them somewhere along the Fifth Avenue… taking advantage of great sales around this time. 😉

My happy son helped me make Dduk Guk (Korean rice cake soup) !

We sent to Sight & Sound theater to see David today with friends family. 
I really love all the show we watch here ever year!

This year, I joined our church choir to sing during lessons & carol service.

Happy birthday my sweet girl!!! You make me so incredibly proud to be your mom and I thank God each day for what a beautiful gift you are to me. You are that cool girl I always wished I could be! You are only sixteen but you are a warrior. You are brave in all the ways that matter. You stand firm in what you believe and you don’t waver at the dramas around you. I am in awe of the beautiful young woman you are and becoming. Love you so much, my firstborn child!
