Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Roni and Roger
Happy Birthday to you!
I woulda sent a card but I got all caught up reminising about being "great with child and longing for stewed prunes*". About how I got too large for my own underwear and started wearing your fathers (he was a grad student how could I afford to buy new for just a couple of months?), about the 11 month pregnancy, the 5.357 day labor, the 82 stitch episiotomy, the pain of heartburn, the agony of the feet ...
Hope you have a happy day.
*Shakespeare, "The Merry Wives of Winsor"
