Today is Jonathan’s 9th birthday—can it really have been that long already? At 12:30 p.m. Ben & Sam are coming over to have dinner with us, and then we’ll all head over to Lee & Ali’s to spend the afternoon and have Jonathan’s birthday tea over there.
He was apparently up around 6:30 a.m. this morning (was already out of bed when Joy & Brian came over from Irene’s, where they are sleeping while we’re here), and when I got up he’d already opened all his cards and presents that were here. Dale and I were at a bit of a loss to know what to get him, and we ended up selecting a mini-stereo system that has a 3-CD disc changer and can also have an mp3 player plugged into it (for a future present if he listens to it). We thought it would be nice for him to be able to listen to music without having to ask to use my iPod or my computer. Hopefully he’ll use it!
