White trash birthday party

The kids got Ding Dongs instead of cake. You can tell it's a crowd of Montessori kids when they ask, "What's a Ding Dong? I've never had a Ding Dong before!" They loved the Ding Dongs; Jack had three. The main course was Parmesan Pastry Pups from Trader Joe's. They also had potato chips (baked, natch), grapes, watermelon, and organic milk boxes. Yes, the amount of garbage was enormous. For the first time in years, playing outdoors was possible. Six little boys, all with two parents and reasonable manners and a love for all things Lego....not bad. I crashed for two hours afterward.

Today Xingu sang a little song over and over: I am seven, you are fifty! I am seven, you are fifty!
