We celebrated Bill's birthday early on Sunday because the kids were over. His real birthday is tomorrow, the 2nd. We had a nice day with minimal bickering which is all Bill really wanted to his birthday. Not 41 candles but enough to make the point that he is getting old.
Thinking of a wish face or I don't my picture taken face which may be one in the same. He got them all out with on breath so his wish should come true.

Nile took that blue plastic thing off a 'truth or dare' book he has and when you hit the button, the lights flicker and stops on an option for you. VERY CLEVER. And Nile got Bill's choice activities right... watch TV, take a nap. drink a beer, eat chips and cookies.
A sweet sentiment on the back.
Bill's sister reminded Bill of a funny story at Thanksgiving. Bill had this little green mouse named Boxer who had a parachute on it. One day while playing. Boxer's parachute came down mid flight and Boxer came crashing to the ground. Bill made Boxer a little bed for recuperate in and Boxer was in this bed for about 6 mo nursing his injuries. Bill still has Boxer on a shelf upstairs. Everyone laughed at this story but I almost cried with this happy thought. I am having this man's child. This man who is sweet and caring and thoughtful and full of imagination. I cannot wait for Bill to make a bed for some wounded plastic creature or stuffed animal who gets injured in the line of play and put it next to our son's bed for him to watch over it.
Bill's definitely not the man for everyone, but he is the man for me and I love him dearly.
Happy Birthday!
