Celebrate the Day

Long time back on this day my wife was born.
Not so long time back on this day my daughter was born.
Less long time back on this day my brother died.

I am happy my wife was born, I was overwhelmed with joy when my daughter was born.
I was sad when my brother died.

So much for a day to hold.  Just a day.  I tucked my wife's birthday gift and card into her lunch bag.  She found it when she got to work, she was pleasantly surprised.  It is nice to be pleasantly surprised at work on a Friday. She called me to say thanks, the happiness in her voice was something to make my day.

I sent a text to my daughter telling her to be on the look out for her gift which is somewhere in UPS Land, that place of trucks, depots, and guys in brown shorts.  I also told her of my joy on the day of her birth and told her to enjoy her day.  She was pleasantly surprised.

I am thinking of my brother, I hope he is pleasantly surprised

Have a good day all.
