Birthday Book





Buby opened this classic 1959 Seuss on the eve of his 3rd. With a rainbow inscription crayoned by Grandma DJ + Tom G. We all giggled at the goofiness while stuffing our faces with colorful cake. I hope to make it a tradition on all of our children's birthdays.


My favorite page reads:


"Today you are you! That is truer than true!
There is no one alive who is you-er than you!

Shout loud, I am lucky to be what I am!
Thank goodness I'm not just a clam or a ham
Or a dusty old jar of sour gooseberry jam!
I am what I am! That's a great thing to be!
If I say so myself, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!"
