on your birthday,
mom put out a fire. yes, that's right, a fire. the neighbor's porch column caught on fire (probably due to a smoldering cigarette butt). the lesson here. don't smoke. ronin - if you don't smoke by the age of 18, a C-note is in it for you. back to the fire. your mom emptied the fire extinguisher and then hooked up the hose and sprayed water on the fire until the firemen came. then after the firemen put out the fire, you got your picture taken with two of the gentlemen.
our friends becky, evan, ari, deanna, hannah and louisa, came over for spaghetti and meatballs and strawberry cake.
we lit your candle twice. the first time you blew it out; the second time aiden and evan blew it out.
