“Happy birthday!” woke me in the morning.
Hugs and kisses followed but I knew they had planned more. Their mummy had warned me.
Each handed me an envelope with writing in bright crayon, “To DaDDy.”
One promised me hugs every morning and night. The other promised me smiles to make my day happy. Both promised kisses.
“Wait! There’s more! We’re taking you and mummy to the zoo.”
As I walked around the zoo with my twins, I knew this was a happy day. I’d have smiles, hugs and kisses to keep others that way.
What better present could there be on your birthday?
