This year marks the seventh year that my wife has bought me a birthday gift for every day of March, my birth month. As is my tradition, I share this list of gifts and thank my wife for generosity. She wanted to do a big party this year to celebrate a noteworthy number of years (60). I told her that I didn’t want to have a party, instead I wanted a Diamond Jubilee. What I really wanted a chance to get to spend time with family and friends. The Diamond Jubilee was light on pomp and circumstance, heavy on fun. Thanks to everyone who made turning 60 special.
