We decided to plan our move for just 3 days after B's birthday. Hmmm....not sure about that planning. We've been busy packing and moving, and packing and moving, and packing...well, you get the point. We took time out Friday night to celebrate B's birthday. Our little family of 4 went to Benihana's for dinner and had a lovely time. (Mine and B's official first date years and years and years ago was at Gosho's a similar Japenese-cook-on-your-table kind of restaurant).
This was the girls first time and B called it - Annabelle will love it, Gwyneth will be freaked out. And that's how it went. Annabelle laughed and clapped and was entertained while Gwyneth glared at our chef. At the end of the presentation while everyone else was thanking him she said "You scared me!". Both girls enjoyed the food and still talk happily about how he cooked on our table, caught an egg in his hat, caught a shrimp tail in his pocket, and how their daddy caught a shrimp in his mouth. (Gwyneth didn't hold a grudge for long). Now I'm just waiting for the food to start flying at our dinner table...
I didn't take my camera so sadly no pictures to share. Instead I'll share a few reasons it's good to have the birthday boy around...
1. He'll always be older than me.
2. He can catch shrimp in his mouth.
3. He is really funny. He still makes me laugh everyday.
4. He is an amazing dad. The girls adore him.
5. He's a really good husband. For 12 years he's been entertaning me and there's no else I'd rather be with on this crazy adventure.
Happy Birthday, B!
