Very excitingly, the handsome Prince sent greetings from the Netherlands. He said, and I quote “Happy Birthday to the Princess Van Haar dappere Nederlandse Prins.”These Hiberno-Dutch princes are great linguists. And emails from a number of other souls who are excellent at remembering the birthdays of friencs’ offspring.
Alarmingly virtuous.
Matters reached a crescendo today with the presence of 6 children and 9
adults all high as kites from excess sugar intake. Thank God it’s
a full year until next birthday.
Surely not a whole year! What about your birthday? Surely Mr. W showers you with an equal amount of attention.
Sugar? All I need is sugar?
Now you tell me.
Felicitations to poor mite/genius. 
Thanks for your kind wishes. Yes, pog, I know, after reading your recent post I can’t help thinking of all the money you could have saved.
