It has been our tradition for family member birthdays, to choose your birthday dinner meal and dessert. Even though we do not promote drinking, I imagined that we (the parents of our now 21 year old baby) would be the first to buy her a drink with her meal out. We had talked about going out for her dinner meal, but she chose to stay home and have a turkey dinner prepared for her along with her favorite dessert, cheesecake! So, that is exactly what we did! No alcohol was served and no alcohol was asked for. So is it possible that our young adults are making better choices or is it very wishful thinking from a parent's perspective?
It's just pitiful...I had forgotten to get candles, and so my baby got the left over (unused) candles from years past. She was not at all put off by it.
After we were totally stuffed with turkey dinner and cheesecake, an old classic movie was in order. When our children were younger, we felt it important to choose well when choosing TV programs and movies. Classics became a favorite in our household, and so our baby chose one of the movies in a set received for her birthday.
And so, she continues to grow...up...grow...older...and continues to shine her free spirited, zany, quirky, beautiful personality. Happy Birthday Lacee Noel! We love you!!!
