Joy!!!!!!!!

Bjӧrn: "Baba, why are you jumping up and down like me in this photo?"

Me: "We have much to celebrate."

Bjӧrn: "But we already celebrated my birthday. This is the picture you took."

Me: "I know, Puppy Dog, but this is even bigger and better than a birthday."

Bjorn:  "Baba, what's better than balloons and a birthday cake?"

Me: "Freedom!"  

The curtains have been flung open.  We can see the light again.  Car horns have been honking non-stop, people are banging pots and pans, some are singing an Ode to Joy
Joy to the World
