Tomorrow is Matt’s birthday! WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP!
![]()
And you KNOW we’re going to be partying hard! Saturday we’re going to take our oldest son for this Kindergarten admission test! And if he’s good, we’re going to get him some ice cream!!! WOOOOO!!!!
*sigh* I had planned something really nice, and then right after I was all set I got the letter from the Department of Education that out of all days, they scheduled Atticus’ test right in the middle of Matt’s birthday surprise. Things happen. But now my husband’s birthday is less than 24 hours away, and I have NO idea what to get him.
You know what I think he’d REALLY like? For all of you to wish him a happy birthday on Twitter. Many of you don’t realize that he has his own account (@mattrobicelli), since I’m the one @robicellis who’s always talking (that’s in real life too). You should follow him and wish him a happy birthday, because I really think that would make his day.
Or what about making him a card like the one I did above and posting it up to our Facebook page? Or perhaps a video of you singing “Happy Birthday”, or “(I Wear My) Sunglasses At Night”? There could be a prize in it for the one that makes him smile the most. Not that I need to bribe you or anything.
What else can you do for Matt’s birthday? Celebrate with some cake!
