sister-forget-me-not:

This precious girl had her 6th birthday party today. Her actual birthday is on Wednesday but we partied as a family early. Under the influence of @simonalkenmayer that cake is carrot cake and she turned down pepperoni pizza for green peppers and tomatoes. I’m telling you, telling her about the veggie monster has done wonders. Well she told me about the veggie monster. I just admitted I was friends with him. She’s also having less nightmares now that she sleeps with my Pocket Simon. He eats monsters. I’m proud of my Sambam.

The party was great. It was just immediate family which is how we party. There were only a few cases with families not always being prefect. Like when Pat spoke about how he wants to go to Japan when he turns 45, and my father rolled his eyes. But we moved on from the moment and it just further inspired my house spouse too make it there.

Why should that inspire eye rolling. I want to go to Japan and I’m 2000. Roll your eyes at that you old bastard.

I am very proud of her. She’ll outgrow my influence someday, but until then, I hope she will make heavy use of my gift. I am waiting on another shipment of paracord, and then it will be complete.
