Happy Birthday, Daniel!

"Now We Are Six"

When I was one I'd just begun,
When I was two I was nearly new,
When I was three I was hardly me,
When I was four I was not much more,
When I was five I was barely alive,
But now I am six! As clever as clever!
And I think I'll stay six now for ever and ever!

~A. A. Milne

Dearest Daniel,

Happy Birthday to my sweet little boy who is not so little any more.

Mommy always tells you she wants to stick you in the freezer so you will stop growing.

But the trouble is, I can't decide at what age I should do this.

Every year you get more and more charming. Smarter and smarter. And funnier and funnier.

It's quite a dilemma. What am I to do?

I think I will have to wait another year to decide.

Happy 6 years old, Daniel Spaniel! I love you!

Mommy
