Yesterday was our 8 year wedding anniversary. I told L in the morning that we were going to cook something special for Daddy and explained it was our anniversary.
Throughout the day we had some interesting conversations. Here are a few snippets:
L: Are you going to wear your married clothes for dinner?
me: You mean my wedding dress? No.
L: Why? It’s our 8 year married day!
me: Well, it’s a very fancy dress. And it doesn’t fit me anymore.
L: Oh, you got too tall?

In the car:
L: Are you done looking in the mirror?
me: Why? What is it you want to do back there that you don’t want me to see?
L: Am I allowed to sleep in the car, or are you going to make me stay awake?
me: You can rest if you want.
L: I’m just so tired. I need to rest so I can stay awake for the dancing part after dinner.
(I have no idea where he got the idea that there would be a dancing part.)

L: Are we going to sing “Happy Birthday?”
me: No. It’s not anyone’s birthday.
L: But it’s our 8 year married day! What will we sing?
me: I don’t know. What would you like to sing?
L: “Happy Birthday.”
me: To who?
L: Me, I guess. It’s not your birthday.

L: I think Daddy would like Batman on his cake. And a big huge heart cookie. With frosting. And Batman on it. He told me to tell you that.

In the end life got in the way of our special dinner. I ended up getting home after T; knowing I’d have two hungry kids in tow, he had made a big batch of scrambled eggs for everyone. I paired the eggs with Pinot Noir. L informed us when it was time for dancing. We danced. And sang.
