Although he doesn't like to celebrate his birthday, it's not about to be forgotten by the people around him. A package arrived yesterday for Papa Tatiana from grandson number one, the elder at ten years of age, from California. It was a delicious flower cake that looked beautiful but tasted awful. But grandson number two, a mere nine years old, who lives just down the street, brought over a batch of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies that made up for the calories. They each have a different name for him, but it all means the same. So tonight we'll light the candles on the flower cake and eat a few cookies. And even though he doesn't like to be reminded, he's glad he was.
