"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

More Birthday Trauma for M

Justin's birthday is really close to mine, so when it came, I didn't make him a cake. We were caked out. I told him I would make it some other day when he wanted it.

Today I made his cake.

M: What's that?
Me: That's Dad's birthday cake.
M, with a really sad-looking lower lip: When will it be my birthday?

I told her that it was the next birthday, and that I would make a pink cake.
