Happy Birthday to me....Happy Birthday to meeee....

Whatever with the Past has Gone....

What a nice saying on your Birthday...so true...and I hope this is a great year for my family, and loved ones! This one is especially for my Twin Sister Shannon! I love you Shannie!

Today I woke up had so many lovely Birthday messages online. My friend Lisa was the first to say Happy Birthday to me this morning...Thanks Lisa. I talked to my Mom for a while this morning which was nice. My twin sister Shannie called too. My husband was off to work early in the morning, but came home really early today, after I got the baby sleeping for his afternoon nap I had a little relaxing me time. I got some warm clothes on and my Vibram Komodo Five Fingers Shoes with the socks, and headed out the door for my "Sun Run Homework Training". I did a brisk warm up walk for 5 minutes and then ran for the full 28 remaining minutes. I could have kept running and running...I was having a really great time, but my TOES were cold as I ran by the house... so I ended it lol! But I felt so free and amazing...my lungs and heart were in great condition and I never felt like slowing down!

AWESOME FEELING!!

After a little while of warming up...I bundled up the kids and we walked to get Khaled at school. SO that was a really enjoyable walk too. Later on I headed down to the "GoodLife" for ZUMBA! and BodyPump...taught by our lovely Nathalie! Had a great time with all the girls! Joanne gave me a really cute red "GoodLife" T-Shirt (I am wearing it now and loving it! So cool!!) and some lotion! Thanks Joanne! Elly had lots of hugs for me...awwww! I felt so special and had a great time! Joanne had on her new Vibram Komodos too and Elly had hers all ordered! :)

When I came home my hubby had a yummy cake which I indulged in, so good going down but then I felt like crap lol...anyways I have to get off to bed...I am tired!!

Grampa Lafleur...

January 11th is a day that tugs at my heart-strings...it would have been the 75th birthday of my Grampa LaFleur. He sadly passed away last April of cancer. Although we lived far away from eachother most of my life, he was very special to me because he was my Mother's Dad and we loved him very much. He always sent us a Birthday card on time...every year, and even as an adult with children, I was still recieving his little cards and so were my children. He had the most beautiful signature...I can still picture it. I saved some of them, and hope to come across one when I go through my things. He used to call us and we all had a turn to talk to him..I can still remember what his voice sounded like. His name was Maurice and my mom said it was "Mo" for short. So in naming my newest baby...BoKhaled wanted to name him Mohammed after his own father. When my mom said "Oh, I can call him Little "Mo" like my Dad"...it made the name easier for me to love and more special to me. When I tell people his name I always say after my father-in-law and also my Grampa. Not able to see him before, makes me really sad so I can't talk about it because I wish I would have gone when I could. I love you sooo much Grampa, and I love you Mom... and InshaAllah (God Willing) we will all be together in Jannah (Heaven). Ameeen!
