When we were on vacation we celebrated my Dad's 60th birthday. We started in the morning and made him 60 silver dollar pancakes followed by gifts of his favorite things. 60 Almond Joys, 60 pieces of black licorice, 60 golf tees and some other funny things too...ever reminding my Dad of how old he is getting. We went around and listed 60 reasons why we love Dad. Some were funny like, "He once left his wallet on top of the car and drove through the car wash." That was a pretty funny experience. Especially watching him run into the car wash which was still going and trying to collect all of his cards and things that flew out of his wallet. And then some serious ones too like, "He knows who your friends are and asks about them when you call." We lit 60 cupcakes with 60 candles and jubilantly sang "Happy Birthday!" I think he was a little uncomfortable with all of the attention, but we couldn't let this birthday slide without a celebration. My Dad is a great guy. I'm glad to be his daughter.
