The number of the day is…….TWO.
Hambet is two today. He has no idea of the momentous occasion, but he’ll like the part about the presents and cake. No special plans. At first I was thinking about the zoo, but the weather outside is really sloppy, so no zoo today. Having Daddy home is a huge treat in itself — they can play “tent”, “chase”, and “cars” as much as they like. I’ll make a special birthday hat.
I ended up choosing marching band instruments for him, by the way (tamborine, jingle sticks, rhythm sticks, maracas, and a triangle, which he will love: “Twiangle!”) He knows there is a cake involved; I baked it last night and he has been after it ever since. I still need to decorate it — I am planning to try a picture of the Count, from Sesame Street. (Hambet loves the Count’s daily segment.)
Happy birthday, Hambet!
