Why Del Is Not My Favorite Person to Buy Gifts For

 I came across this old picture of Emma on her birthday in 2011.  Note that her birthday gifts aren't particularly exciting but her face looks like we just told her we're taking her to Disneyland!  Emma loves presents, and she's always enthusiastic about everything she gets.

Now compare that face to her dad's.  Note the lack of enthusiasm on his face.  He looks like the plaid pattern is making him physically ill!   
 He actually likes the shirt and wears it a lot, but you wouldn't know it by his reaction! (He swears I caught him mid-squint)  I've told him he is the worst gift-receiver I've ever met, and he's tried to work on it but it's just not in his genetic makeup.  
 
He's always very enthusiastic about carrot cake, though, so at least that's something.  Happy birthday, Honey!
