Why are birthdays so important? I guess a milestone of any kind is worth commemorating--this one was fun to pull off--Robert is difficult to surprise! L.B. couldn't be there, she was in Utah with Tom's family but she called just before the cake-cutting. I think Bobby may have enjoyed the surprise more than Robert! This was last year's birthday--but since Bobby is no longer with us I am so glad we could be together at this birthday.
