Happy B-Day Shank




Today is Shank's B-day, he's 3. We refer to him as "Shank" because he literally shanked his older brother with a fork one night at the dinner table. The three pronged bruise lasted about a week, but there was no skin puncture, so it was okay. Shank Grisanti has a nice ring to it, in a Goodfellas type way, definitely tougher than "Paulie Walnuts" or "Jimmy Two Times".

Shank is the second of our three children. He spends his days trying to keep up with his older brother and distancing himself from his younger sister. He loves playing outside, Star Wars, and his Bebe & Passy. He hates thunder and blueberries. His smile and personality light up any room and his hair is, well, just plain awesome.

In typical Grisanti fashion, we had a party yesterday here at the house. We blew up the bouncy and had plenty of yard games for the kids. The dining room table was stocked with food and the patio was full of family and good friends. We spent the day enjoying the beautiful weather and watching the kids run, play and laugh. It couldn't have been any better.

Tonight, Kimberly, the kids and I will do a small birthday celebration and give Shank his gifts. I will cook his favorite dinner, macaroni and cheese and there will probably be some cake and ice cream. Shank is a beautiful boy, he's my buddy and I love him very much. Just don't try and take any food from his dinner plate...

Happy Birthday Shank, We love you.
