Today is Christina's 12th birthday so we were determined to talk to her today. After calling a couple of times this week around 8pm her time and missing her (each time we were told she was out shopping...whatever!), we switched tactics and decided to try calling first thing in the morning. We called late last night at 1am our time (8am her time) and FINALLY got her. They had to wake her up to come to the phone and she was pretty groggy but we got to sing "Happy Birthday" to her. She giggled and especially loved it when we got Winston to bark into the phone to give her his canine birthday greeting.
She didn't have too much to say...mainly kept telling us she was tired. Poor baby. At least she knows we didn't forget her birthday. It was important to us to make sure she knows we're thinking of her today. So we're hoping our girl is doing something fun to celebrate. It's hard to be so far away sometimes, but that will all change in just a few weeks!
