A Very Happy Birthday!

Celebrating With My Granddaughters

Happy birthday, indeed, with the help of my granddaughters! Four year-old Sophie loves birthday parties, even when the party is for Papa. Everyone must wear a party hat! Sophie retrieves several from the birthday bag. She hands one to all present. You can't refuse. Don't worry about looking goofy. In my honor she arranged a selection of stuffed animals to concentrate the party joy around me. I was honored. Highly honored.
Silly faces and winking make picture taking more fun.
Lucky grandparents corral the grandkids for pictures after the birthday party.
Little Annabelle thinks the sound of a finger running along a comb is hilarious. She has a contagious, bubbly, heart-warming laugh. You can see my hand to the right of Annabelle's head where I "played" the comb to make her smile.
I felt so happy and content this night.

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
When I say that I'm o.k. well they look at me kind of strange
Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game

People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
