lillibettalking about my 40th birthday party...
Daddy: That was when you were almost two.
Alice: I think I was still one.
Daddy: Yes, but you were almost two.
Mommy: On my birthday you're always almost-the-next-age, because when it's my birthday it's only two weeks until your birthday. When you're a grown-up girl, I expect we'll celebrate our birthdays together by going out for a nice lunch.
Alice: But I want to have a party!
Mommy: You can always have a party, but when you're a grown-up girl, I expect you'll want to have a party with just your friends.
Alice: But I think I will invite you to my party. And Daddy. (reaching out a hand to each of us) You can always come to any of my parties.
Daddy: Thank you, Alice!
Mommy: Thank you, sweetie. But don't worry, we won't hold you to that.
