Birthday Boy

There's only one boy in the house, so you may not have too much trouble guessing whose birthday we celebrated today. It was another gorgeous, sunny day, so I will consider that a gift to all of us. Jim played hooky from work, had some Seattle diner breakfast, read some (as part of his resolutions for his next year of life), did some shopping, and had a long run. Deluxe! We went together to pick up his cake and his daughters, went out for a steak (for him), and came home to play a Super Why-inspired letter puzzle that led us to his birthday present, a semi-industrial blender (to make his protein shakes!).

Jim is resilient, smart, kind, funny, good looking (see: protein shakes), I could go on and on. I can't wait to see what he does with the next year of his life- there are a lot of challenges ahead, and it should be interesting. But in the meantime I celebrate the birth of a very good man. Happy Birthday, other J. Khooler!
