Birthday Greetings

Below is the card my husband gave me for my birthday on Monday. Take a moment and see if you can figure out what my issue was...




Me: Love the card, but why is our daughter's name on it?

Him: Because the presents are from her too.

Me: So you think it's appropriate to sign a 2 year old's name to a card about sex? You couldn't pick up a card from her to "mommy" instead?

Him: Oh. I didn't think of that.

That's funny. I think you should save it. Someday in 25 or so years you'll be having a bonding moment over memorabilia and she'll be sifting through old letters and come acrossed it. I can hear it now,

"Ewww. Mom!"

Loins can be burning at a birthday party too. I burned the mango glazed pork tenderloin that I made for Papi's birthday dinner. There was indeed a lot of moaning made about it, but then I gave Papi a piece(of cake) and he was sublimely happy.

Your husband is a penny pincher shrewdly beating Hallmark out of another 2 bucks for his daughter to give you a separate card. I admire that.

Men are stupid. At least he got you a card. That's a 'detail' most men forget!

Oh no he didn't!

I let my boy (also 2) pick out his own mother's day card for the wife this year. He picked out a card that was "from the dog."

In a show of solidarity, I'd like to state that I see nothing wrong with what he did.

I think Daniel is a thoughtful, well-intentioned husband who deserves a wheelbarrow-full of credit for his commemoration of your birthday. Way to go, Dan! (Now, you'd better back me up when I blow it like that with Kim some day, fool!)

Congratulations on Scarlett's arrival! I'd like to think our visit had something to do with it, but in all honesty, I got the very distinct impression we interrupted a pre-natal, pan-sofa makeout session.
