On your birthday, which would you prefer: 1. Sex 2. Cake 3. Card
On the inside it says:
Oh, I see you chose the card. Well, better luck next year.
I figure,when I give him the cake, I will say, well, two out of three ain't bad.

I did not get to make the comment about the card. D8 beat me to the punch! LOL She said to him, "Look Daddy, you got cake too! Aren't you lucky?!? " D16 almost spit milk all over the table! Too funny!
I bought him a gift card for a hobby shop that he likes. H likes RC cars and planes. I used to get annoyed about his "toys", so my encouraging him using them is a big 180. I made sure that was stuck specifically in my card, so he knew it was from me.
The kids got him two cards--one funny, with Spongebob, the other more serious and sentimental--picked for the zingers contained within. It read:
For our Dad- A great dad is just the right blend of strength, humor, and love. A great dad knows when to step back, step in, or simply let a hug do the talking. A great dad is there to celebrate life's good times and comfort during the hard times. A great dad isn't about being perfect-he's about being sincere and honest and real.
Happy Birthday, Dad-and thanks for being one of the great ones. -----------------------------------------------------------------
I kow, I know, dirty, but you play with the cards you are dealt, right??? PUN intended!
No mysterious drives to the store that lasted an hour last night. Of course, he may have done that when he left my mom's, who knows.
He sat and watched the Legend of Bagger Vance with me last night before he went to bed. He is standing three training watches today. One from 7-9am, one from noon-2, and one from midnight to 2am. Says he will "be home" after the noon to 2 watch and then after the 2am watch. Wonder if he expects me to give him a key to get in, or just leave the door open?
Watching the weather. We may pull the kids out of school tomorrow to go to the amusement park, instead of Saturday, since we have a tropical storm/hurricane sneaking up on us.
I got up to make sure he was up this morning. I had to bite my tongue last night when he was talking about what time he had to get up. But, may be I should have said it. when he mentioned what time he was setting his alarm for, I said I would set mine a few minutes later to make sure he was up. He said thanks, he appreciated it. I wanted to say, " Of course, you could just sleep upstairs and we would only need one alarm."
KJo--When I was on the phone with you outside, he was hanging out in the garage by the door, like he was trying to hear what I was saying or who I was talking to. Let him wonder a bit.
Thanks everyone who checked on me yesterday and those that I spoke to on the phone. Ya'll are wonderful friends and I am so lucky to have ya'll in my corner!
Funniest phone conversation yesterday involved a twang and a drawl! I am not sure which one of us has a worse accent!!
I may be in later. I need to do some small things around the hosue and some laundry. I am also trying to get out of a class for next term--or at least into a different professor's class. I will definitely be in after he leaves for the base tonight.

Yes but did she place a take out order for Porkchops & Peaches?
Sis...
Things seem to be moving smoothly in your corner good on you. It will be interesting to see what H does about the 2 am. watch will he ask for the key or not kinda like the old gmae show Let's Make a Deal will it be door #1 or door #2. Wouldn't think it safe to just leave it unlocked...
Keep praying to the man above and follow his words
You know how much you care about someone when I check your thread before I go to my own. Yes, let the man wonder who you were talking to. Even if he doesn't think its OM, he will wonder what is up.
