gosh, thank you for the really lovely comment. I'm sorry to make you cry! I wanted to give Dean the kind of birthday he would really enjoy -- the little details that give him so much enjoyment -- but then he can't fall asleep and it all comes back heavy on him.... poor dearheart Dean! I was very proud of Sammy on this day. :) Also, I made Castiel give Dean an Eeyore birthday wish -- one of my favorite stories ever.
