Birthday
My blog turns 18 today. And Jessica turned 16 five days ago.
Somehow, it never occurred to me that my blog was older than Jessica. I guess those pre-Jessica days are just the Dark Ages. Certainly, life has been a lot more fun since she arrived.
I was pleased to see that she actually wore her birthday card/tiara:
I hoped she might, as someone who was always happy to put on the hat from her Christmas cracker. Erica says that Jessica hasn’t taken off the key necklace since she opened it, so it’s good to know that she enjoyed her gifts – and that they got there on time. She is such a great kid.
Happy birthday to my silly blog, which is older but not wiser, and to Jessica, who has always been wise beyond her years.
A YEAR AGO: Happy birthday to my blog!
FIVE YEARS AGO: In which I finally realize my blog’s birthday falls on 420. A little slow on the uptake.
TEN YEARS AGO: A scorching birthday for my blog. 96 degrees at 5:30 in the afternoon is both inhumane and unacceptable.
