We were planning to visit GJ, but there was a blizzard with high winds and the covid case numbers are out of control. So we celebrated Ben’s 41st birthday quietly at home.

We opened presents and video called our family. We played a board game together. He had sushi for dinner and we watched an anime. He requested I make the same Italian Cream cake as last year. Perhaps underwhelming as birthdays go, but he said he had a good day.
