In Her Party Hat (2004)
Today is my daughter's 18th birthday. Last night, she informed me she's now an adult and that "I can buy cigarettes and go to a strip club" before adding the clarifying "not that I'd want to do either."
Today's image was made thinking back upon memories of an earlier, younger birthday. But I didn't need her reminder that she's no longer the girl in the image. I've watched her grow up. I can see she's not a child anymore. And if I momentarily forget that fact, I'm sure she'll quickly set me straight.
But, even if you can now partake of voting and other vices, you're never too old to don a pointy party hat, light those trick candles, and make a serious wish.
And my one wish today? Have a very happy birthday, baby.

Thinkin bout a new do
Streaking orange with gold
Or silicone implants to
Make me that big and bold
Now don't get mad!
Just testing, Dad!
Heard there's a terrific job
At the local twist and grind
Pickin up males from the mob
And crank to blow my mind
Now don't get mad!
Just testing, Dad!
Actually I goin to a Camp
With all the Christian dweebs
Where preachers turn me damp
To don some yuppie tweeds
Now don't get mad!
Just testing, Dad!
