The day before her b-day we made a massive yellow cake with chocolate frosting.
On her birthday Lili went to school to celebrate with her friends and the adults all went out to lunch. At 2.20pm I got a call on my cell from Lili's teacher telling me that the Education Dept. had ordered all schools to send children home at 3pm because of the possibility of snow.
So we all finished our coffees, ran to the train station, garbage picked a cool green bamboo chair, caught the train and got the girl just in time.
It never snowed, but we had an extra hour and a half for presents.

Getting a pretend snow day is a great thing to happen on your birthday.
You are right.
Nice that all the grandparents could be there! I was wondering what the circumstance was that would put you all on the same continent, when I saw that picture earlier.
