The Morning After

Says Davis as he walks sleepily into the dining room the day after my birthday:  "Mommy, is it still your birthday?"

Me:  "No, buddy, my birthday was yesterday.  It's not my birthday anymore."

Davis, voice cracking and on the verge of tears:  "But my want it to still be your birthday."

Me:  "Davis, it's ok.  We still have the cupcakes."

Davis:  "Oh."

(Sigh of relief)
