every year I set the birthday table with candles, funny wind-up toys,
Twizzlers, Cheez Doodles, and many photographs of the guest of honor.
Today is ELI's 19th (holy moley) Birthday.
Just now, I grabbed this collage off my bedroom wall..
contact sheets of Eli (almost three) posing.. or not.. for a portrait for Spark.
He brought his tambourine and honey stirrer.
David Caras took these photographs that I will forever cherish.
I remember that day like it was yesterday.
Happy 19th Year E!
