“I’m BIG!!”
Apr 30, 2008 Categorized: Life with Kids •
When I asked Hunter how old she was on the morning of her 3rd birthday, she put out her little hand with an attitude and said, “I’m BIG!!” After laughing for a moment I said, “Are you two or three?” Again, she replied, “BIG.” So, we’re going with that. If you ask her today how old she is, she will give you the same BIG answer. And indeed, her semi-annual checkup at the doctor yesterday proved her case.

{Big sigh.} The 2008 McKelvey Birthday Bash is officially history. The Captain Hook and Tinker Bell party went down without a hitch, and we had a wonderful time celebrating the birthdays of our precious children. I’ve posted pictures at my dropshots page, and password-holders can get there by clicking on the photos in this article. I’m uploading over a hundred just from today, so it is taking a while.

Today is the big day. The moment for the Peter Pan Pirates and Fairies Birthday Party is nearly here. The Tinker Bell tablecloth lies in await beneath some leftover loot (beaded necklaces and rhinestones) and the Southern Living at HOME Gail Pittman Hand Painted Pots and Stand holding purple and black dessert napkins and a complementary purple African violet. Bill is away filling purple, green and clear balloons with helium, while I prep the back yard and bury hidden treasures in the freshly built sandbox and black cardboard treasure box which Bill fashioned out of a diaper box.

My darling little Will turned five today. We had a fun birthday together with just our little family to celebrate. We’re planning a big double party in two weeks for both the kids, so today was a bit low-key.
