Monday Memory: Happy Birthday

February 18, 2008

Since yesterday was my birthday, it seems only appropriate that I should post a birthday picture or two.


So here I am at age two. My brother Stephen would have turned four just 5 days beforehand. I bet my mother, after four boys, took pure delight in making that pink heart-shaped cake.



And here I am, 40 years later. My precious mother, who is nearly 81, still baked my cake. My brother turned 44 five days ago. And I am smiling at my youngest son. I have everything I ever wished for upon every birthday candle, and much, much more.

Post A Comment!.....

if you can't fit 42 candles on your cake, one candle that is 42mm in diameter could do.
(do I need to translate that for you?)

Happy (belated) birthday!!!! Love the pic!

My mom used to make me an angel food cake almost every year for my birthday. Her birthday was the day after mine. She passed away last July. :-(

Hope you enjoyed that cake!

What a sweet, sweet post! Loved it all, especially the last sentence. I hope my girls will still like a baked cake from me several decades from now. You look beautiful in that photo, btw.

Well, happy birthday to you! I love your post of the books from the stages of your life. The books and the quotes are fascinating! :-) I've moved so much that I don't have any of those books from previous eras. (Can a 30 something use eras like that?) It seems that you're reading many of the same US historical fiction we will be reading soon. Nice to see your positive reviews.

Happy Birthday!! How sweet! I didn't know you were the youngest of four boys. I guess you can really sympathize with Hip Rider. LOL

Sorry this is kinda late, but I hope it was a good one. You look happy in the picture... By the way, is The Kraken (Kracken?) still on that shelf that is finally up?('finally' was about 2 months ago) Maybe you should update with Dunkin Donut's motorcycle dude. By the way, did you root for the Giants or the Patriots in the Superbowl? The Patriots TOTALLY should have won.
