"Show me when on the calendar your birthday is, Mommy."I flipped forward to June and pointed to the middle of the month.
"It's after Abby's birthday and after Nanny and Rick's wedding," I told her.
"We're getting a bike trailer for Mommy's birthday!" she bragged to our new neighbor, who was over for a playdate.
When I let Josh in on my birthday wish, he said it was too much of a family gift and not nearly selfish enough. So I told him he can buy it, assemble it, and get my bike tuned up too. Perhaps he's wishing he didn't open his mouth.
I have other wish. It's also an all-family affair, but decidedly less practical: a tasteful* family portrait by this guy.
*Tasteful=black and white, no matching outfits
