December 20 was a birthday day in more than one fashion. One negative of the night shift is I don’t always have the energy to work all night, and then stay all day for the actual event. So after I finished setting the scene, I imagined what the day would bring, hoped the easy bakes wouldn’t burn down our office from overuse, and then went home to sleep.
The glory of the digital camera took me through the day’s events. One of the more memorable visits was a husband and wife (lucky to be at the same base) that came to bake in celebration of her 21st birthday. While I did miss out on the cakes, I didn’t miss out on the brand new birthdays that took place in our legacy room. It just so happened that a service member came to the office in the late afternoon and his wife was in labor. A baby boy AND a baby girl were on the way. What a wonderful way to end a birthday day, with the beginning of two ones!
