A Birthday Letter To Suri
Dear Suri,
Allegedly you are two today. I hope you are, and that you are having a great birthday. You probably won't remember your birthday, because hey, you're two. Hopefully you got to sleep in a little, spent an hour or two on the E-meter and then they said you could have the rest of the day off.
I saw your mom was out shopping yesterday, or at least had a bunch of movies. One looked to be Mary Poppins. I think you will enjoy it. Everyone, and when I say everyone, I mean bloggers, and honestly we don't really matter. But in our own heads we matter, and so we like to speculate. A little thing called gossip. Lots of gossip about your family. Anyway, everyone said the movies were part of your birthday gift.
I know that everyone has said your birthday is today, but I'm wondering if maybe it wasn't a few months ago, and no one told you. It's not like you can stand up, and say, "hey, I was born in January" or something like that. If you did, some embarrassing questions might be asked.
You are growing up so fast. Well, I guess you are. No one has seen you in a few months. Already doing ethics checks huh? Well two year old girls have lots inside that you are probably trying to hide. You probably are closing in on like 3 feet now. Another six or seven inches and you will be right there with dad. I know he probably doesn't like you calling him dad. More likely he has you call him sir, or Academy Award Nominee, or Grand Poobah.
All kidding aside, I really do hope you have a great birthday. I hope that you laugh and giggle and smile all day. Open lots of presents and break them all in two minutes. Get cake on your face, and just have fun. Stay close to mom and you will be ok.
EL
