Then my little sister Lauren came to my house and made me dinner. YUMM! How often do people come to your house and cook you dinner/dessert?
And lastly, my mom gave me two very special presents.
This is an Emerald/Diamond ring that my dad gave to my mom when they were dating. Isn't it cool? I wore it today and loved it.

This is a terrible picture, but this is a prism charm on a sterling silver chain. It belonged to my great grandmother. The story behind this is that my mom's grandmother had a beautiful vanity, and she would sometimes let my mom sit at it. My mom would try on this beautiful "diamond" and feel like a princess. She requested that her grandmother leave it to her, and now she gave it to me. It's beautiful, and special. A family heirloom. I love it.

I usually don't expect much for birthdays, but I must admit I got some of the best gifts ever this year. Happy Birthday to me!
