Guest guest Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 10/22/02 "Bo's Birthday" Today was Bodhi's birthday. Ananda decided it would be a good idea to celebrate it with presents for herself and also a cake and some hats. Jim and I agreed that having a party would be lots of fun and we suggested ideas that would be pleasing to a happy little dog. Ananda, however, continued to steer the brainstorming into ideas that would be pleasing to a happy little girl instead. What we ended up doing, just for kicks, was going to the corner store together and buying ingredients to make a cake and we shaped it to look just like a big bone. We all pitched in to its creation with enthusiasm but when we were in the final stretch we ran into a little roadblock: Ananda wanted to put four candles on the cake, one for each of her years, instead of seven, for Bodhi's. Jim and I tried as best we could to teach Ananda about the matter at hand, but you know what? The cake smelled so good and anyway, who really cared about all that? The birthday boy sure didn't, and we all agreed that seven candles would be more fun to blow out than four. I can safely say that after we dropped the lesson, each of us, including Bo, equally enjoyed our portions of the bone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
