Last summer, Jay delivered a birthday gift to me from my good friend, Lisa. As I was opening it—and after he had already had his treat after dinner—Josh and I had this little exchange:
"Is today a special day?" he asked.
"Every day is special with you boys," I replied, as if I were answering a trick question.
"No, I mean it's a special day when it's your birthday," he explained.
"Well, today isn't my birthday; my birthday was last month when we were in Chicago."
"But you got a present today, so it's like your birthday and that's a special day," he persisted.
Not knowing exactly where he was going with this, but willing to cede the point, I answered, "Okay, it's a special day."
"Then can I have another treat?"
I knew it was a trick question....
I look forward to your stories. Love them, in fact. Keep it up =-)
