Erik's birthday had a muted celebration last week as he was afflicted with some cold he caught on a Boy Scout camping trip. Many of you had the opportunity to hear his raspy voice as you called to wish him happy b-day. You will be relieved to know that he is feeling better.
Through the week, we celebrated by letting him choose what he wanted for lunch and dinner and finally had a birthday dinner for him Sunday. Yesterday, upon finally returning to work, he brought his coworkers banana and pineapple cupcakes to celebrate.
Happy Birthday, Erik!
(and Sheila is relieved that he is again the land of the "living and productive" . . . being a single parent is hard work)
