See my happy one-year-old boy on his birthday? Thomas says "Patrick is 'number one"!
We had a great day, with lots of Patrick's favorite games of peekaboo, dumping the folded laundry piles over on the beds, and chasing after the boys while giggling. Later, we had a special birthday supper in honor of Patrick. He presided like the monarch he is, see below. Notice the jesters he keeps on hand for dinner entertainment, one on each side.
After dinner, the cake was brought out and the candle lighted. After a moment to admire the single flame ornamenting that wholesome mountain of birthday goodness, Thomas, as the eldest brother, said a few words fitting to the occasion.
Patrick was pleased, and therefore allowed his jesters the privelege of extinguishing the royal birthday candle, while he applauded with enthusiasm and genuine goodwill.
Hurray for Patrick! May God bless you this year and always throughout the life he gives you, and may you continue to be a blessing to all of us who are allowed to see the goodness and love of God through you, Patrick!
