Birthday Politics

Happy birthday sweetie! It was K-bao's 4th birthday yesterday and here she partakes of her favorite dessert (also known as, "Oh my goodness, chocolate cake!!")


It must be recorded for posterity that K-bao achieved new levels of political behavior on her 4th birthday. K-Pop was late in arriving home due to a delayed flight, and rather than demonstrating her filial piety and self-control by waiting patiently, K-bao declared at 7 p.m. to K-Mum, "It's ok, let'sjust have the cake with you, me and Aunt Chris. I can't wait anymore!" After some heated negotiation, K-Mum talked the little one into holding on just a little bit longer.

Then, upon arriving home, K-Pop was greeted with the following: "Daddy, look, I picked out the chocolate cake for you because I know that chocolate is your favorite!" Left unsaid of course was the fact that (1) chocolate happens to be her favorite too; and (2) the cake would already have been eaten had K-Mum not intervened.

Later that evening, without prompting, she burst out with this gem: "Mommy, thank you for working so hard, so we have money, and for loving me."

K-Mum and K-Grandmum were stunned into silence. 48 years to the White House! Maybe 44!
