Today Ty rode the wild Seahorse while Lorelei went UP the slide.
Sometimes as I sit and watch my children play I can't help but wish I could see things they way they do. When did the magic of all life's little things stop grabbing my attention? Today we went to Kailyn's birthday party at Pine Ave. Park. We had the best time! It is my favorite park and we were surrounded by some of the best gals from my playgroup. Lorelei, in particular really enjoyed herself. I watched her sit and draw with her sidewalk chalk while Tyler fought off all the bad guys with his sword. To me it was just a stick his friend Patrick found in the grass, but to Tyler it was the thing that transformed him into a brave knight. After the kids played for a while, we sang "Happy Birthday" to Kailyn and then came the cupcakes. Tyler had been looking forward to them all morning, but Lorelei is the one who was CRAZY about them! I gave her the cupcake and let her go to town. She started out slow. Got some frosting on her hand. So she wiped the frosting off by spreading it down the length of her entire leg! All I could do was watch and giggle. So, then she gets frosting on her other hand and wipes it down the front of her dress. After that, I guess she thought "Well now I am a mess, so here goes nothing" because she starts just stuffing her face. Well, nothing could describe the scene better than a picture...
I think it was the best day of her life!
Ty, on the other hand, had a few challenges.
