Birthday Celebration Covid-Style

On Wednesday we celebrated Derrick's birthday and it was unlike anything we would have imagined. For starters, I was sick and incapable of preparing anything for him nor did I get him a gift. I felt so unprepared and guilty but my husband was a trooper. Secondly, there was no way of going out to a restaurant to celebrate and since we had a food coming in from our lovely church members, he didn't even get to choose a birthday dinner. 

However, despite the circumstances, we are truly grateful that we are able to celebrate Derrick on his special day and more than that, we are blessed to call him ours. He is best husband and daddy! 

Happy birthday, my love!!!

There is and always be birthday decorations to make any birthday special around this house: 

Birthday wake-up song: 

And some homemade cards and lots of love:

He bought himself some gifts and then proceeded to wrap them himself so that we all could be surprised when he opened them on his birthday. If that is not true love, then I don't know what it would be.

There may have been no surprises, no cake nor a nice dinner, but we were all here to celebrate you and that love on you and that is what made this day special. We love you. And next year, we will go all out for your birthday!
