Yes, today I turn 30. Unlike some people I am unafraid to announce my birthday (nor am I brazen enough to beg for gifts on the internet). Honestly, I forgot that today was the day until I got my card from Mom & Dad (thanks y'all). Then I forgot about it again till I got an unexpected happy birthday email from BC (one of my Brooklyn church-going heroes). Then I forgot all about it again until Brent came home and lavished me with gifts and take-out.
You parental types weren't kidding when you told me having a kid means actually living life centered around someone else for REAL.
Happy Birthday to me!
P.S. And thanks to the cool Lutheran neighbors who surprised me with cake & a birthday dirge after dinner. You will forever remain the "cool Lutheran neighbors" no matter where you move off to.

Hope you had a good day, despite having forgotten it was your birthday. My sister, also a Jennifer, turns 30 on Sunday. It's the week of the Jennifers.
Well, Jen, you managed to get that baby in before you turned 30. Bravo!
"Today is your birthday, happy happy birthday. Today is your birthday, happy birthday HEY!"
Sorry, I was a day late.
You're so freakin old, GOSH!
Don't ever tell me such a disgusting poop story about Clare ever again. Especially when you involve it with mac and cheese.
Happy Belated Birthday! You seem so much more mature than me, I forget we are the same age!
