Timmy’s birthday ‘vegetable’- part 1

Let the birthday vegetable festivities begin! (for those of you who don’t know the origin of the bday vegetable, we have always had weeklong ‘birthday festivals’ for the boys, with parties, special dinners, etc. and when Timmy was really little when he said birthday festival it sounded exactly like birthday vegetable. So there you have it.)

Timmy celebrated his birthday (which is actually tomorrow) at school yesterday. I don’t think ANYONE, ever, in the history of the world of birthdays has been more excited about their birthday than he is! And everyone comments on it!

He really only likes Oreo cookies. No muchkins, no brownies, definitely no cake. So we made it work and brought Oreos in for the class. No one seemed to protest.

Bossing everyone around.

And my favorite expression on the right.

On the way out of the classroom, he announces “make way for the birthday boy! birthday boy coming thru!” See, excited!!! His party is tomorrow and I just hope his head doesn’t pop off from anticipation prior to that.
