Coolest Cake I Never Had

Best kids ever!!! So on my birthday this year I was scheduled to be in Little Rock Arkansas for a project working a long, long day. I had already planned on being bummed and miserable that day being there alone on my birthday.

I was talking to Pattye on the phone today and she said ‘Wait, you’re not in Little Rock this week?’ and I told her no, that the timeline had changed so I didn’t have to be and I’d be in Houston.

Then she asks me if I knew ‘Kelly Caldwell’ a guy who works at Little Rock. Weird!!!! It turns out that her and Eric had been planning for awhile now to surprise me with a cake delivered to the company there for my birthday. Pattye had called the OpCo and they hooked her up with Kelly who is the Director of Profit Management there, and he’s the person that the lady at the switchboard hooked Pattye up with.

Just the thought of the surprise really made my day!!!! That right there was the coolest thing for me.

Fortunately because of the change in schedule I’ll get to come home to Detroit for a long weekend in a couple of weeks and see my cool kids face to face!
