How to charm me

Excuse me while I write down this conversation IMMEDIATELY. It was this evening at the dinner table between me and Henry, age four.

Henry: When is my birthday this year?

Me: It’s in June.

Henry: Again? When is it going to be in winter?

Me: Never, your birthday is always in June, every year.

Henry, completely surprised: How you know?

    Oh I adore that Henry. He is the sweetest. I think he deserves a 1/2 birthday in winter, too!

    I laughed and then five minutes later I was reading something else, thought of Henry and laughed again. I just want to squeeze him!

    Yes, he sure is a charmer. Quite a way with words he has.

    If that doesn’t earn a half-birthday celebration, nothing will!
