Oma's Birthday

On Wednesday last week, I reminded the girls that Oma's birthday was Friday and that we needed to make her a card.  When Friday rolled around, the girls asked where her party was going to be.  I tried to explain that grown-ups didn't always have birthday parties but they were having none of that.  Keeley said, "but you said it was her birthday party today".  I tried to clarify that it was her birthday, but no party.  They were not happy.  I asked if they thought we should have a birthday party for Oma on Saturday when she came over and they enthusiastically agreed.  We went to the store and got cupcakes, balloons, and sang to her.  The girls were thrilled.
