"Happy Birtday Dad"



Early yesterday morning Blaine and I attended a marriage in the Boise Temple. We left Jenn at home with instructions to stay indoors and not open the door for anyone. She was also supposed to get dressed and eat breakfast. Since it was Blaine's Birthday Jennifer decided to make a special Birthday banner for him. She was so immersed in what she was doing that she failed to get dressed, make her bed, eat breakfast, or feed Scamp! We came home just before 10:30, as we entered the kitchen Blaine was surprised to see the 6 foot banner taped across the windows. It was colorful and decorated with pictures. The banner read, "Happy Birtday Dad!" We oohed and aahed over it and Blaine gave Jennifer a hug and thanked her for the surprise. For most of the day the banner stayed taped to the window. Several hours passed before Jennifer noticed that she had misspelled "Birthday!" She was so embarrassed. It's funny that not one of us noticed it any earlier.
