Happy buttday to you!

Eliana managed to sit on a cactus at day camp on her birthday. Not just any cactus... one of the furry kind with teeeny tiny spines very close together. So hard to see and grab with tweezers, and she had about 10 left by the time I got to her (not sure how many the camp counselor got out). She held very still and didn't complain too much (typical).

I suggested I could call her "Cactus Butt" ala The Lion King, but she said, "Mom, it's my birthday, you can't joke with me in embarrassing ways." So I started singing "Happy buttday to you, happy buttday to you!" and she laughed. So I got to sing that to her for the rest of the day.

I was so above bathroom humor as a kid. I'm sure making up for it as a mom...
