Stormy Weather

It's storming here tonight in Rochester and this made me think of a storm of a different kind.

I have a March birthday and this particular year my parents had planned an at-home birthday party for me on my birthday March 28th. The guests were scheduled to arrive at about 5 o'clock but it was clear by 3 pm that no one was going to make it to rural route 4. It was a blizzard! I remember being so disappointed that I wouldn't get to have my birthday party. Dad and mom decided we'd have our own little party and I remember vividly sitting at my kids' table in my bedroom eating cake with them and talking about my favorite parts of the year. It still remains one of my favorite parties and it was just the three of us.
