Confidential to Dad:
Happy (belatedly announced to the Internet) Birthday!
Sorry I forgot to publish this yesterday. I’m glad you enjoyed your birthday card. FYI, our toilet isn’t working again today. When are you coming over to fix that?

The staircase to climb up to the penthouse suite at the Tabard Inn was narrow, old and tight. Dad climbed it to deliver some water bottles to my room as the ladies in his life were getting their makeup done. He made one of the best comments of the day: Do you like the room? We had Anthropologie come in and decorate it for you. The mirror above is just one example of the eclectic decor.

At the end of the reception, as there was a mad rush for people to line up outside for our grand exit as a couple, Dad came up to us and said “Best wedding I’ve ever been to, you two. Better than my own!”
