Happy Birthday, sweet Jennie
May 24, 2007
Sunday evening Clay and I were in the kitchen, getting the details of a very important package ready to send.
“Wow,” I mused, tying a sparkly pink ribbon, “can you believe your baby is going to be 15?”
Clay looked up, startled.
“WHO?”
“Jennie, honey. Your daughter?”
“….is turning 10. I KNOW.” He gave me serious quelling eyebrows. I went back to tying ribbon.
“Wow, she’s going to learn to DRIVE this year.”
“HUSH, woman,” he said, glowering at the paper he was writing on.
Dear Jennie, happy birthday! You should know that your dad adores you, and this “growing up and becoming a beautiful young woman” deal you’ve got going is driving him insane.
We all love you, and hope you have a magical day. Happy…um…TENTH birthday.
Bwahahahahahaha....
(I know, I know... laugh while I can. My turn is coming.)
