It Was The Best Of Birthdays
This past Saturday, October 13, was my daughter-in-law Callie's birthday. |
As Theresa had to put in a few hours of work on Saturday morning, it was early afternoon before she and Callie arrived, .hence we decided to start out with lunch at Panera.
That evening we met up with Tommy and Emily at Spaghetti Warehouse in downtown Columbus for dinner. |
However we waited less than fifteen minutes for a table, |
Fried zucchini sticks, |
Fifteen-layer lasagne, |
...Turin Trio |
...and bruschetta, |
...with sides of the freshest salad, |
With the freshest sides of salad and Italian Wedding Soup. |
I was a little surprised to hear her say that. After all, what was so special about going shopping, going out for dinner at the Spaghetti Warehouse then having a Dairy Queen Cake?
I asked her why this birthday was so much better than any other but she didn't explain much, saying that it just was.
But I think I know what she meant. This is Callie's third birthday as a transgender woman. I think she meant that each year life gets better.
