At breakfast, we told the waitress that we were celebrating Morgan's birthday and that she could order whatever she wanted. Of course, she chose the very healthy chocolate smiley face pancake. When our food arrived, a gentleman came over to our table with his daughter and said that he wanted to make Morgan a flower since they both share the same birthday. We wished him a Happy Birthday and he made a very cool flower out of a paper napkin and handed it to Morgan. When I gave the waitress my credit card to pay for the breakfast, she said that the gentleman had paid for Morgan's breakfast. He told her not to tell us, but she wanted us to know. I'm so glad she did, because I didn't even notice that Morgan's meal wasn't included on the bill. We didn't know this guy, but he felt compelled to do something really nice for Morgan's birthday. I told Brian that we will definitely have to pay it forward.
That evening, when Morgan got home, she had a huge bouquet of balloons waiting for her from her Godmother, Peggy. Morgan was beyond excited and played with them all night and even talked to them, ha! She also received a birthday card from her Great Aunt Liz, who shares the same birthday. This little girl is so loved and so blessed. I hope one day she will know just how much.
Maylin slept through the entire meal. :-)
