Happy Solstice!

We've had relatively warm weather today and no rain, what a wonderful way to herald in the return of the sun!

Today is also my husband birthday. In celebration we "wrote" a little song for him and we'll be singing it before we head out for dinner (sung to the tune of Santa Baby):

Buh-bum.. buh-bum...
Solstice baby, we put a present far from the tree, you’ll see
Found the gift of your dreams
Solstice baby, so “fifty” ain’t as bad as it seems

Solstice baby, a 54 year-old wife for you, she’s true,
She'll wait up for you dear
Solstice baby, so “fifty” ain’t as bad as it seems

Think of all the fun you’ve missed,
Think of all the ladies that you haven't kissed
Next year it could be just as good
If we just win that Lotto draw

Solstice baby, you want a yacht and really that's not a lot
With the winnings it’s clear
Solstice baby, so “fifty” ain’t as bad as it seems

Solstice honey, one little thing you really need, the deed
To a Condo in Spain,
Solstice baby, so “fifty” ain’t as bad as it seems

Solstice cutie, let’s fill the household with some good times and wines,
An old scotch is just fine
Solstice cutie, and “fifty” ain’t as bad as it seems

Hurry, open your present dear,
With your loving wife and sweet children near
We really do believe in you,
Love you still, even “Over the Hill!”

Solstice baby, forgot to mention one little thing, let’s sing,
“Happy Birthday to You”,
Solstice baby, so “fifty” ain’t as bad as it seems

“Fifty” ain’t as bad as it seems
“Fifty” - this year!
