Yikes....Woke up this morning and I'm 40!

I started to right a syrupy reflection on where the time went and then my office phone rang, and when I answered I got a "happy birthday" from my Eight year old and I knew all was right with getting older! She wanted to know if she was the first family member to call me, and was thrilled when I told her she was, my then very sad five year old daughter got on the phone and wished me happy birthday as well! My wife explained to me that she was sad because she could not understand why I'd go to work on my birthday! I told her that daddy's birthday was not a national holiday yet but to hang in there it might be one day!
