I love Birthdays!!

So, Wifeys birthday over the weekend; A lovely day to be had by all. In theory. She enjoyed the day, which is always top priority on this day and rightly so. I make sure the kids have picked and written cards, wrapped their pressies to mom (you can just tell when a child has wrapped a pressie and it makes it that whole lot more special).

We had a great day, babysitter, restaurant thing ( starter with brightly coloured cocktails, and then straight to dessert!! - superb ) followed by the cinema to see 'Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy' - What a classic and the film almost lived up to its heritage.

But then, the tiredness, colourings, overexcitedness, etc all take their toll and the rows start. Over stupid things, as always. You try to calm it down, say nothing that would make it worse, but that makes it worse (Some aptly named inverse law applies here).

I hate birthdays...
