Today’s my birthday!🥳

I’m spending it here in Jamaica with my husband, in his hometown. It’s a little extra special this year because tomorrow also happens to be our first wedding anniversary.

Getting here was a bit hectic. I worked from 8:30AM until 3:30PM yesterday, rushed to the airport for our 5:30PM flight, landed and cleared immigration by 7:30PM, picked up the rental car, and then drove another 2.5 hours — well, he drove not me lol

It was my husband’s first time seeing his brother in a while, and his mom is also visiting at the same time (she’s based in the U.S.), so we ended up hanging out late. Around 1 AM, they surprised me with a birthday cake and sang happy birthday — I wasn’t expecting it at all. It was a simple moment, but really thoughtful and sweet. We finally went to bed around 2:30 AM.

And still… I woke up at 6:30 AM like clockwork. Doesn’t matter if I’m tired, if it’s the weekend, or even if I’m on vacation. 😅

Spent the rest of the day hanging out with family, did a bit of grocery shopping, and of course, my favorite thing — a nice, quiet afternoon nap.

Can’t wait for whatever tomorrow brings! 🫶🏻
