Your Children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you. And though they are with you they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their thoughts dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. Kahlil Gibran

Chocolate Cake with PB Frosting

Happy 65th Birthday to Yiayia!! Now everyone knows about your special day today, Mom. We are thinking of you as we head off to Vermont on our way to Montana for a bit over 5 weeks. Niko couldn't wait until the 7th to give Yiayia the cake, so we surprised her the night before with her all time favorite cake.

Willow, on the other hand, doesn't like chocolate and it is hit or miss with how she respond to the whole birthday song and cake. This time we got tears. I don't think she liked the element of surprise.
Willow loves Yiayia's special swinging through the air and "This Little Piggy" rituals before bed. We are having a heat wave so we are all doing our best to adjust. Happy Birthday day today, Yiayia.
