One Nine
One. Nine. Two numbers. Two meanings. Today, Patrick turns 19. I used nineteen single candles on his cake (sorry about the waxy glaze, everyone...it take a long time to light all those tiny wicks) but considered cheating and using the two digits; one and nine. It would have been quicker to light, but I've been using single candles for...nineteen years. No point in changing things now. One Nine also happens to be the runway from which Patrick often takes off when he flies, including today when he flew another solo...what a fun way to celebrate a birthday! Happy Birthday to my favorite son!
