Well, despite my better judgment, Zoe got her hand-made birthday card. 
Not because I was any less mad about having 48 hours to get a present and a card, but because I was feeling creative and well, I have a reputation to uphold. (The top half of the picture is the front, the bottom half is what the card opens up to say.)
.
My mom bettered me, though -- she worked for the last week to make Zoe a handmade quilt. I can't compete with that. (Click on pictures to see larger images.) We'll talk later about how anti-social my child acted, and the couple of screaming fits he had. Wow, birthday parties are fun.

Cute card - you are so clever, girl. Birthday parties = over-excited, overwhelmed kids + frazzled moms. Meltdown city. Always happens with Ryan!
