Happy Birthday Brett!


My baby is 7 today! So here's to you son...thanks for all the humor you bring to me and the creative/funky imagination you share! Have a great day!

SO, last night Brett was so excited that his birthday was *practically* here. He wanted the whole family to sing happy birthday to him at dinnertime and nobody was indulging him. I could see how much despair he was in when he couldn't get anyone to sing Happy Birthday just one night early. So, after everyone left the table, I pulled a Ho-Ho out of the cupboard, stuck a blue candle in it, lit it and "whisper" sang Happy Birthday to him out of earshot of the rest of the clan. The smile I got was priceless.

Today I dropped him off at school with one of those cool new gawd-awful iced cupcake/cake thingies. The frosting is just absolutely disgusting. But kids love it and it prevented me from having to miss the "Grissom is leaving" episode of CSI in order to bake cupcakes last night. By the way it was a good ending....Grissom and Sarah reuniting. Nice touch.

Well, work is calling and I need to go for now...but have a great day!
