Birthdays are a big deal around here. My family's, friends', and mine (!). They are full of treats and huge, grand arm sweeping surprises. But my last one, last month, was a bust. Don't get me wrong, the gifts and well wishes were stellar (as always!) but the tone rang sour with daughter's unexpected, impending school closure. I almost forgot all about MY DAY. Worry friends, I celebrate 1/2 b'days.
So.......I've been thinking about last year. H told me that morning, "Just put on something nice and be ready at 7:00." Daughter was sooooo excited. I couldn't extract ANYTHING out of her. What a vault!
This is what pulled up:
And this is her inside, shrieking about the TV:
I still, occasionally, crack up about how people rushed to the limo when we pulled up at Pazzo to see who was inside. Just us. They were disappointed, but I have a great memory of something that makes me laugh. That's a special gift, no?
Above song keeps running through my head. Incessantly. Not sure if it's a gift (the incessantness...is that a word?). Oops, sorry. I didn't mean to get it stuck in your head too, if you chose to click on it.
Make everyday lovelier than your b'day! How's that for making up for last month?
