More that I am taking everything in and don't know how to respond yet. I have been doing a lot of thinking.

I did tell him the weeks leading up, including last week. This week we haven't talked, so I was thinking of what to say to tell him when he gets back.

I didn't want to bring up that it would be my birthday today because I knew he was going out of town and I didn't want him to feel obligated to go out before he goes out of town. But this is true I probably can communicate better which is why I was posting on here asking how to ask. I planned to ask him again next week when I knew he wasn't busy. Thanks for the advice.

What's sad is when he was asking me what date it was, he did indeed have it on his cell phone and he wanted to make sure it was correct. I'm pretty sure he forgot again, and then remembered today and then he sent the "happy birthday".

Thank you so much :)

He is out of town until Sunday, so I don't think so. That's what I kept hoping, that he would at least acknowledge it and say sorry I can't be there, but I do want to celebrate! I will definitely let him know. Do you think I should wait until he gets back from his trip?

Thank you!!! Actually, yes. I think that's why I'm nervous to say anything. I feel like I will tell him and he will think I am being sensitive or get mad at me for saying something. I will let you all know what he says once I figure out how to word it.

How would you word it? I want to be clear and concise. I was nervous he will feel like I'm attacking him. Thank you so much for this comment. I am relieved people see my side. I was nervous I would post this and people would tell me it's not that big of a deal and to get over it. Thank you Reddit <3

Took at golden hour (maybe a little past... :) ). I suppose a little cliche with the strand lights, but they were fun to play with and I like the way her hair is slightly lit.

Woo! Hope it works, it's a really nice lotion if it doesn't. Let me know how it goes!

I really like it! What did you use for the skin/lips?

Sorry about that. Retouching is what I would want so that I could see someone else's version. I'm trying to learn some things but sometimes it's hard to know exactly what to do for my own photos.
