Sixty four!

Exactly one month to the day since the oldest four girls in our family gathered in the city to support each other through Farmdoc's open heart surgery, we came together once again. This time Abby came all the way across the seas to join us too.

And this time we came together to celebrate.

We sang Happy Birthday.
We danced to the obvious Beatles song.
We drank coffee.
We ate a big lunch and a little cake.
We reminisced.
We spent time together with no husbands, or boyfriends, or children, or pets.
We talked through issues and told stories.
We cried at his speech and laughed at hers.
What a day!

Happy Birthday Dad!

I hope you had a great day.

ps. Bloody Blogger just swallowed this post when I tried to publish it the first time. I think it was better the first time too.
pps. Thanks heaps for all the answers to my last post. You guys are awesome.
ppps. Imagine how much fun it'll be when you turn 64 and get to spend the day with your adult children. Now that'll be a great day too I think.
pppps. I'm on officially on Pinterest now as Foxslane.
