We had a fine old time celebrating our niece's first birthday yesterday. The
neat thing about being one is that nobody is too disturbed when you wear your
birthday suit to your birthday. This also worked out in her favor when the cake
was served, since she decided to smear as much of it on her body as she managed
to get into her mouth. Quite a cute sight, made all the more enjoyable by the
fact that somebody else had to clean her up. The joys of parenthood.
