The Birthday Girl

Without the actual girl in today's blip. 
I kinda knew that cameras (especially mine) would be off limits this year. I managed surprisingly well with the withdrawal symptoms. 

Here is what the card says:
I couldn't not got for the cringe Daddy-joke card...
You know me. Painfully predictable. 
Dependable also. Never hesitate to ask. The answer isn't always "no".
I wish you a lot of happiness on your 18th birthday. Short/medium and long term. 
It feels like only yesterday when you were analysing us with your inquisitive eyes from your buggy. 
No matter how embarrassing this may feel, you are still our baby girl.

Love
