35...36...37...

Another birthday has come and gone. It was a nice, quiet day at home with A and the two little ones; MB was so excited about the shirt she had picked out for me, and even more proud when I put it on and wore it all day. It's amazing how what we want for our birthdays changes as we get older; when I was little, it was all about the gifts and possible parties. Now that I've reached the age where Jack Benny stopped aging (or at least entered the phase where his birthdays began to repeat), it's all about being with my wife and daughters. You can't ask for much more than that.....

Belated happy birthday!

How very true that we change priorities as we age. Being with the ones you love on your special day is a lovely thought indeed. :)
