Seth's 11th Birthday

One of the benefits for Seth of a Christmas birthday is that he gets to have a party with our extended family, not something the rest of us get to do often. This year we had everyone over at my parents' for a taco buffet dinner. Because of a craving for wedding cake he had a couple of months ago he decided on a white cake with white frosting for his birthday. Watch out, Seth, or Maggi and Frank might eat that cake up! Frank was a birthday gift full of personality right out of the box.
Seth was so cool opening gifts in front of a roomful of people. He took his time with each gift, carefully removing each thing from the box and fully enjoying it before moving to the next gift. We remembered a birthday many years ago, I think when he was turning three, that each gift he opened he would say, "It's just what I always wanted!"

Happy Birthday, Christmas boy... you will always be my favorite Christmas gift!
