“We know we're getting old when the only thing we want for our birthday is not to be reminded of it.”

TIME: 12:56 to 1:02 AM
PLACE:  Dad’s house
SUBJECT:  Yard art

My godchild and I returned to Dad’s house early this morning to decorate his front yard and car for his birthday.  We used Post-its, crepe paper, and 70 plastic forks.  Why forks in the lawn?  I have no idea.  It was something my mom and her siblings did to each other on their birthdays.  I should have filled his car with black balloons like I did for his 50th.

To make it up to him, I made his favorite birthday pie – strawberry glazed – and took it over to him this evening.  I hope I’m still in the will.
