\"\"<\/a>My daughter’s illustrated birthday wish list.
\nFound on my office door
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

We’re a small family in this house.\u00a0 Me.\u00a0 Daughter, Cathleen. The Grand, Caedan Ray. Two out of\u00a0 three have birthdays during the last quarter of the year.\u00a0 Cath’s is this month.\u00a0 Caedan Ray will have her Sweet Sixteen in November.\u00a0 Then, of course, it’s Holiday Central.<\/p>\n

Two of us do the planning and shopping for the celebrant.\u00a0 Weeks in advance we’re nagging for\u00a0 THE LIST.\u00a0 Also, we need to know preferences about the day itself.\u00a0 No party gathering this time but the\u00a0 birthday girl chooses her dinner and what kind of cake she wants.<\/p>\n

Cath did her list proud this year. It’s cheery and colorful and detailed. Do we attribute this to pandemic boredom? Or maybe she really, really wants only that specific kind of garlic press. And peanuts?\u00a0 She had to put them on a list?\u00a0 We know about her love for peanuts.<\/p>\n

No, we don’t plan to get potholders for her birthday, but we get the hint that favorite old threadbare potholders need to be replaced once in a while. She does most of the cooking here and deserves consideration.<\/p>\n

No sense teasing about the bunny slippers.\u00a0 She really means it.\u00a0 She loves those big slippers with animals on them, plush and heavy and I don’t even know how she walks in them.\u00a0 The two pups, Charlie Brown and Benny, share her fondness for them.\u00a0 Every day before Cath comes home from work, at least one slipper is dragged to the entryway to wait by the front door. She goes through slippers pretty quickly with the help of doggies dragging them.<\/p>\n

Of course she won’t be getting all these things because shoppers also like to choose.\u00a0 There are three bossy women here and it’s not logical to think you could make up your mind all by yourself about your own birthday celebration and have all your wishes come true.<\/p>\n

The two shoppers will also buy things that aren’t requested.\u00a0 Surprise!\u00a0 Bet you didn’t even know how much you’d love this thing we decided to get for you.\u00a0 Maybe Santa will bring the rest.\u00a0 Or not.\u00a0 The Or Not Factor is always a consideration when bossy women get together.<\/p>\n
