Happy Birthday, Little Guy!

Hi all, Guess who turned 3 today??!! And celebrated his first birthday ever in America? David has had a ball since yesterday when his preschool classmates sang Happy Birthday to him, and they shared little cups of vanilla ice cream. I brought the treat so I was able to sit with David's tiny classmates at a picnic bench as they swung their little legs, struggled to maneuver their ice cream with adult-size plastic spoons, and talked about dinosaurs and food.

Today was pretty busy with school, speech therapy, and errands, but we ended it with a party at Grandma and Papa Lee's, where David opened his first train set! Daddy made the table (only his second woodworking project, ever!). Have a look.




Grandma's camera doesn't have a microphone, so just imagine us singing Happy Birthday to a thrilled Bruffy. And it might look bizarre, but we have to pinch David's nose so air comes out his mouth and not his nose. That's pretty important when you're about to serve cake!



What fun! Thanks to everyone for their kind gifts. We think this little guy felt pretty special today. He was more animated. :)

Take care, Caroline
