Fifteen years ago, we took our daughters to the Smithsonian air and space museum. I was amazed. I was braved enough to take two kids on my own to the children's zoo when my husband was at a conference.
Now my son wants to go.
There is this Chinese Cantonese tradition. One a 1 year old's birthday, the kid shown a whole array of things including a bottle or beer, chicken, hammer, abacus, book, money etc. The idea is what ever the kid chooses, that is what his future will be like.
Well happy birthday. I hope you've slowed down the partying as you've gotten older!;)
ReplyDeleteThe wisteria is beautiful, wish we had some growing here.
My favorite color -- purple... and the beer party picture is adorable! Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteUmmm....feeling wistful (wisteria) of days gone by, Ed? hehe!
ReplyDeleteEven back then you were quite a wild one, eh?
Happy Birthday, my bud!
Sure hope it's great one.....just like your wisteria photos :)
