Discussing Charlie's Birthday Dinner

Stanley came down wearing his usual attire and Alan and Akiko came up from the basement because they were now finished putting Charlie's new vibrating reclining plaid easy chair together.

"What's for supper, Suzie?" Charlie asked his oldest daughter.

"Since I'm still too young to use the stove and oven," Suzie answered her father. "I used the microwave to make each of us a pot pie and I even microwaved a small jar of pureed carrots and another small jar of mashed peas for Tom."

"Very good, Suzie!" Akiko exclaimed.

"Thanks, Mom." Suzie said.

At the dinner table, Henry had a question for his father.

"Pop, what would you like to eat for your birthday supper?" Henry asked.

"Corn beef brisket, au gratin potatoes, steamed broccoli, and milk to drink." Charlie answered Henry.

Suzie, Anne, and Alan were whispering to each other about a birthday cake.

"Pop," Suzie added. "Alan, Anne, and I have decided to make a four layer smores cake for you for your birthday."

Suddenly, the Chan family fell silent after Tom spilled his milk from his sippy cup.

"Bos taurus!" Tom exclaimed.

"Tom said his first word! He's talking! What a terrific early birthday present!" Charlie exclaimed out of glee.
