Happy Birthday, Zenkitty!
In related news, I have lived 38 years as of today. My day hasn't been that exciting, and it's raining and cold, but I have strawberry shortcake waiting for me after work, so I call it a good day.
My best (early) birthday present was that I got to meet my baby niece for the first time on July 2nd. She's nine months old now, and is a pointy-faced, mostly bald cutie with huge brown eyes and five teeth.
When I last reported on my niece (back in the delurking thread in October), my family thought that my brother (her dad) was not going to have any contact beyond paying child support, but he has met her (even though it wasn't until Easter weekend), and is coming to Halifax again in August to see her again. So: much better than we thought.
