Plus a gaggle of girls. Two specimens~
Plus warm birthday wishes~
Equals a very happy birthday!
A house without a woman and firelight is like a body without soul or sprite.~~Poor Richard's Almanack (1733)

ReplyDeleteWhat presents did the birthday girl get? :)
ReplyDeleteLet's see . . . from us she got a bulletin board, the two latest Connie Willis books, The Princess Bride and West Side Story on video, and a Swiss army knife. What in the world she's going to do with that I don't know, but she really wanted it, and Man of the House thought it was a good idea, so . . .
ReplyDeleteFriends and family gave her bookstore gift cards (to three different bookstores! :-) ), and neat notebooks and pens. They sure hit the nail on the head with those gifts. Generous grandparents sent money, all of which Girl 2 opted to put in the bank.
She seemed very pleased. :-)
Cut open packages, trip candle wicks, un-do knots, and things like that with it. ;)
