“Do you know what’s so special about your birthday Thalia?”
“What?”
“Well, before your birthday, three years ago, I wasn’t a mommy yet.”
A long pause. Realization. A gasp.
“Were you…a daddy?”
Happy birthday Bungo. I love you for this reason and a million more.

Happy Birthday Pretty Girl!
Liz, such a precious picture of you and your big girl. It’s amazing how time flies.
“Yes, my little pumpkin. My name used to be Larry.” That photo of you two is gorgeous. Happy Birthday to Thalia! Amazing to realize she is three already.
The deductive reasoning of a three year old never fails to entertain.Happy birthday T!
What a great photo! happy birthday pretty little lady!
That’s awesome! What a cool kid you have!
Hers is a world of clear opposites.I like hers better.
Happy Birthday Thalia!(Liz, I can’t believe you haven’t blogged about being a man!)
This is when you realize that you really didn’t mind the last three years of runny noses, huge messes, and late nights of worry. When they give that little nugget of innocence that you know it’s all worthwhile.Happy Birthday Thalia, and congrats mom on 3 years of good work!http://www.notesfromthesleepdeprived.blogspot.com

Three IS the magic number…
Happy Birthday to a beautiful punkin. Isn’t it weird to realize what a short fraction of our lives we’ve been parents, but how much more has happened in those years? Deep thoughts, from too much coffee.
Happy Birthday Thalia. My Gabriel just turned 3, too. 7/7He loves showing me how many years he is on his fingers.
Happy Birthday Brilliant Girl–one day you will look back on mommy’s posts and realize how proud you make her and how much material you gave her. Ask for a portion of the proceeds.
Liz, you look absolutely radiant in that picture.
A very happy birthday to a very beautiful little girl!
Wow, three already? Happy belated birthday Thalia!
Classic!My grandpa used to tell my uncle when he was a little boy, “You’ll be a man before your mother.” Confused him to no end.Congrats to the third power on year three going on four!wmw in OR

Feliz cumpleaños numero trés, Thalia!(did I say that right?)And to mom & dad, three is a really fun age. Enjoy!
Just beautiful. Happy birthday, little one.
Trying to come up with something witty and clever about you being a daddy before Thalia but I’m stuck on her cuteness. (And my mind is fuzzed from wine.LOL)Here’s to the best year yet.Can’t wait to see you friend.
Oh my god Liz, she’s so big. That’s an awesome picture of the two of you. Three years old? Last time I came by, I don’t even think she was quite two yet. Have a blast at Blog-her.Issa
