Happy Birthday To Poo

Milo and I celebrated our birthdays last week -- Milo turned 6 and I ... well, I had a birthday last week. Although it was a risky situation, Bob took 4-year-old Willa with him when buying me a gift. In order to keep it secret, he suggested she "throw me off" by telling me they bought "sheep poo", since manure is a much-purchased item for our garden in the spring.

Both Milo and Willa thought this most funny and tried to come up with even more clever white lies to keep the secret going. While Milo continued along the "poo" theme, Willa showed her great sense of humour and comedic timing when she told me:

"We got you a bucket o' fish!"

Happy sweeping!
