what a day for a birthday!

Well, the lad is now four. When we asked what he wanted for his special birthday dinner, he said, "Banana muffins!" Well, fair enough, they have chocolate chips. But we'll have them for birthday breakfast. What about dinner? "Um . . . waffles with strawberries and cream!" That's traditional; I approve. How about we eat it Saturday morning -- but what about tonight? After some cajoling, he opted for "noodles with bacon." That's my boy.

We got together for a special lunch, played around when I got home, and enjoyed opening some presents (and reading the resulting books) before bed. A good time had by all, I think.
