Birthday 55

He was the happiest baby.
He had the cutest giggle.
He was my fishing buddy
...my movie buddy...
I've seen all of his concerts,
all of his parades, all of his marches.
Today, he can get tattooed....
Vote....
Go to war...
Without my permission!
Happy 18th Birth-Day Reese!!!
Your Father Loves You Very Much...

Oh good, he must take after his mother in the looks department. :)

Seriously, happy birthday to Reese. Gotta love a man in uniform. He will still be your buddy, just not always right there. Wait till he turn 21 and you take him down to your local watering hole.

Scary Monster said...

The hardest thing will be,
to see him as thou sees ye.

Talking face to face as men,
Not only popa and son again.

You've made sure that he knows,
the difference of asses and elbows.

The rest be up to him.

stay Stompy.

abcd said...

I think you must look as attractive as him, all the time. :)

Vi said...

Hi there, I see you read little wing. You may be interested on reading my latest post I've just dedicated to her.

Cha Cha said...

My vote for birthday present madness definitely goes with the tatt.

I say a hottie jumpin' out of a birthday cake on his bicep baring her nicely shaped melons and perky nipples.

It's bound to attract very interesting women his way for years to come!

Promise.

SignGurl said...

G, you are the sweetest daddy!

Reese is a real looker just like you.


Strumpet!!!! I'm so excited to see you that I can't remember the rest of my comment.
