I Tried

Happy Birthday Tandon!!

I tried to start the day with something special for a two year old. However, I forgot that my two year old is not like the rest. We were going to surprise Daddy in bed with birthday noise makers. I was the only one making noise while Kellen was crying because he didn't like the sound. :)

I tried to order Tandon the perfect gift online, but it won't get here until Monday.

I tried to invite all our friends to a special birthday dinner. Amazingly 16 of the 19 people are out of town this weekend. It got to the point that Tandon accused me of pretending everyone was out of town so that they could surprise him at the restaurant. I wish I was that creative!

I tried to make cheese cake for the first time because I know Tandon likes it. The recipe says to leave it in the oven with the door shut for 5-6 hours after baking to prevent cracking. Obviously it didn't work.



Despite all the flops we had a fabulous time with the few friends who could make it. The cheese cake tasted delicious--cracks and all. And by the end of the day Kellen had overcome his fear and was blowing the noise makers himself.




Happy Birthday Old Man!
