Feliz Cumpleaños ParTEE!
And here you have it oh father-in-law of mine. My gift to you. The opportunity to SEE your precious grand-children exactly as they are, with all the screaming, crying, look-at-me-look-at-me chaos, and then getting to walk away and actually enjoy your day on your own terms.
Happy Birthday, big guy.
