Candles

I am 38 today.
Aidan went out and secretly got a cake for me at the store down the hill. He got candles too. But there were only 12 in a box, and he didn't want to have to get 4 boxes, so he made a "3" and "8" out of candles on the top of the cake.
I need FOUR boxes of candles now. FOUR!!!
That is so wrong.

Cara bella Joelle:

Buon compleanno a te!
Tanti auguri!

I love hearing about everything. The photos were grand. You all look very wonderful in il sole d'italiano.
I am glad you are young and strong for this experience.:) Your children will remember this always and be very grateful to you for providing this trip. Brava, Joelle! Bravo, Brian!
Imagine celebrating your birthday in Italy! For you, reality; for me, only a dream. Have a coffee for me!
And maybe another piece of cake.

I can't wait to see you again.
Maybe some of your italian gold dust will rub off on me. Till then:
Buona fortuna! In bocca al lupo!!
Much love,
