You are special today.

So reads the "special plate" that I used today ("Use It!") to serve my Bub's third birthday cupcakes. The "special plate" was a tradition in my family growing up. You ate your dinner on it on your birthday and on other days when you were especially special. I think tonight marks the first use of the special plate in our little family.

That is a wonderful tradition. I think I'm going to start something like that here.

It makes me happy to know that you still think that special plate is pretty special. m

My family had the very same plate! And my mother always insisted that we eat our dinner off of it on our birthdays, too. I wonder if she still has that plate because I now want it.
