Happy Birthday Ottawacker Jr.

Today marks Ottawacker Junior's 9th birthday. A great day was had by all. Ottawacker Jr. was pleased with the variety of gifts and calls; Mrs. Ottawacker skived off a meeting to have lunch with the males of the family; I once again enjoyed a day off and managed to play front-room football with Ottawacker Jr. and eat a guilt-free burger, as that was Ottawacker Jr.'s choice for birthday dinner. The Burger's Priest is really very good.

In the morning, afternoon and evening, we fielded calls from relatives, friends and loved ones, and settled in to watch a couple of episodes of All Creatures Great & Small, the new version, which isn't too bad. 

Nine years old. I still remember when he was less than nine minutes old and popped up to give us his first "hello"... (extra)
