I'm now 3 minutes into my 34th birthday. As usual, the phone rang at midnight.
"Ugh. I can't believe work would call you again this late." Lisa said.
"What are you talking about? It's midnight," I said. Duh!
As anticipated, it was my Mom, who always calls at midnight at the start and end of my birthday to wish me well.
And thus, the annual celebration of what will [eventually] become a national holiday begins anew.
I'll fill you in on all the fun later.
[Quote of the day: Lisa looked over one of the kids schoolwork. "You Catholics are a trip. Look at this coloring book - twelve pages about "Jesus fell", "Jesus was whipped" and "Jesus was nailed to the cross" and then what's on the last page? "Benny the Bunny has a huge Easter egg. Can you help him color it? Happy Easter!" LOL . In fairness, I think the teacher added the bunny pic ;)]

In the meantime . . .
I thought I'd start the day with some pictures taken in September of 1975, when I was eighteen months old. The pics were taken by my Godmother's husband (Uncle George) as part of a photography course he was taking at the time.
Take a look at this next one and tell me Smiley doesn't resemble his Daddy!
Check out the pants in these proofs! The girl in the photos is my sister Katie, six months old at the time.
