Sue's Birthday and Plans

Big day today. Sue is another year younger! I may score some extra points with that comment.

Friday night we went out to Red Lobster for supper with Sue's friend Beth. The food was good, but I still think the pictures of the food are better and cheaper. It was a nice evening of chatting and opening presents.

Later today Ben and Anna and Sue's folks, Molly and Harv are coming over to partake in food and of course, lots of Cake.

Speaking of birthdays and getting older, I mean younger, a friend of mine sent this to me and It may be appropriate.

RETARDED GRANDPARENTS

(this was actually reported by a teacher)
After Christmas, a teacher asked her young pupils how they spent their
holiday away from school.
One child wrote the following:
We always used to spend the holidays with Grandma and Grandpa.

They used to live in a big brick house but Grandpa got retarded and
they moved to Florida .
Now they live in a tin box and have rocks painted green to look like
grass. They ride around on their bicycles and wear name tags because
they don't know who they are anymore.
They go to a building called a wreck center, but they must have got it
fixed because it is all okay now, they do exercises there, but they
don't do them very well.
There is a swimming pool too, but they all jump up and down in it with
hats on.
At their gate, there is a doll house with a little old man sitting in
it. He watches all day so nobody can escape.
Sometimes they sneak out, and go cruising in their golf carts.
Nobody there cooks, they just eat out.
And, they eat the same thing every night --- early birds.
Some of the people can't get out past the man in the doll house.
The ones who do get out, bring food back to the wrecked center for pot
luck.
My Grandma says that Grandpa worked all his life to earn his retardment
and says I should work hard so I can be retarded someday too..
When I earn my retardment, I want to be the man in the doll house.
Then I will let people out, so they can visit their grandchildren.
