But I would set her straight. Perhaps later that evening or the next day (you know, my real birthday).
That said, I would be hurt that she got the date wrong after all these years.

Well you are too gosh darned sweet.
But really, yeah, it would sort of be a little juicy to wait and tell him later.
I think, on another hand, {so many hands!} that, as a mom, we do correct. I mean, I think the kids learned a lesson this morning~everyone makes mistakes. I think it is up to Dad now to show that he can get over it and laugh. You know what I mean?
If these were teenagers they would be teasing the hell out of him but these are kids looking to him for guidance on how to react.
I tell you, I have always admitted to the kids when I've screwed up. No matter how many times.
No walking on eggshells in this house. No sir. Everyone makes mistakes.
