Twenty-seven
Today is Steven’s birthday and I am really excited to give him the two gifts I got him – a watch case engraved with his initials, and a watch:
Steven doesn’t like surprises. I love surprises. So every year, I buy him something not on his wish list, in hope that he will start to love surprises like I do.
And every year, he guesses what the thing is I bought him. Even though it wasn’t on his list. This year was no different! How does he do it? Am I that obvious?
Oh well, I still enjoy pretending that I was really clever and bought him something he would never figure out.
Happy Birthday, Steven.

Do you give him the gift after you post it in your blog? That may be how he guesses.
And Merry Christmas, Kim!
Happy birthday Steven! 🙂
that’s so sweet of you. i like picking non-list items too. i bet he’ll love it!
Please wish Steven a happy birthday from all of us!

Happy birthday!
I get mad at my husband for guessing his Christmas gifts. Even if he really is guessing, and has no real clue, he seems to always be right, and it makes me mad. So I’ve told him to stop guessing out loud, or I take everything back 😉
R is one of those good gift guessers like Steven is!! (and i’m so not!!)
Happy Birthday Steven!!!
Ryan L – I posted this after he opened the gift! Merry Christmas to you too! I ran into Brad Baer at O’Hare today… how crazy is that?
thanks everyone – I will relay your messages to Steven. He had the shittiest birthday ever. More details on that in tomorrow’s post… probably…
Sorry to hear about the rotten birthday – but I think your present is wonderful 🙂
Thanks, everybody!
