Hey, that is a gift and a half and really hope you both have a splendid evening, and that slap-up birthday meal is a real treat! This is a good whitney to share the moment with too! Soundslike it will be a real family affair with your bother, mum, dad, Shaun, little un's and Molly all in the runnings! Hear is to you and your Sunday lunch as well and I know I shouldn't ask but my curiosity is getting the better of me... does this mean you're a northern family, as I don't know where you're from? Hope you don't mind me asking :)

Hi Dale. We had a fab time, thank you!
Thanks for the great feedback :) We are indeed a northern family! From West Yorkshire to be exact! Where are you located?

Ah that makes so much sense! I live in place called Rugby (the place where the game was invented!), but my family are all from up north, as we are all Mancs! We are scattered throughout though, with an uncle in Berwick Upon Tweed! Really glad you had a good time, I think you deserve it more besides :)

Fantastic, Debra. Your Whitney poem and author's note does indeed point out the importance of time spent together. Little brother, head chef--good for him. Sounds like a super birthday. Marilyn

AAAAwww great rhyming in this challenge entry. And using what happens in everyday life makes for the absolute best poetry because there is emotion here.

Comment from Rachelle Allen
Now THOSE are extraordinary parents. But I can't say I'm surprised, since I've gotten to know you, and you are outstanding, too. You plant corn, you get corn!
I hope this is your best "extended bday" gift yet. Enjoy the food your brother makes, and your enjoy your time away with your beloved. I'll be sending you all kinds of happy vibes. xo

Comment from Heather Knight
I've checked the restaurant online and it looks supercool. You are lucky to still have your parents around.
My dad passed away when he was only 63 and my mum is in a home as she has Alzheimer's.
Have a great time together.
Thanks for sharing this cute poem.

Thank you so much, Maria :) It has been a gorgeous weekend, we enjoyed every moment!
I agree, I am very lucky to still have my parents. I'm sorry to hear about your mum's alzheimers. My grandad had alzheimers also - it's a cruel disease.
Sending love, Debra

What a wonderful present, Debra! You both certainly deserve some 'us' time, all parents do. Catch up on a bit of romance ... hmm, sounds good to me. Have a wonderful time, my friend, your lovey poem ought to be shown to your parents, I'm sure they will love it. :) Sandra xx
