Last weekend was Julien’s Birthday party! Ever since I wrapped my brain around being pregnant and got super excited… I started to dream of all of the little birthday parties I would get to do again… There is something so magical about a child’s birthday! A Neverland party has always been a dream… and at last it happened! This year it wasn’t even delayed or a drive by… things are feeling back to normal slowly again and I just wanted to celebrate our little boy with friends smiling and being together! It felt amazing! I will never forget the way Julien smiled so big that his eyes looked like little moons… Tonight after showing him all of the pictures he said, “Mamma my eyes are crying on me!” I asked him why, “Why are your eyes crying?” He said, “They are watering because I am so happy because my birthday was the best birthday of my life!” ughhh I can’t even… The magic, the wonder… his smiles just are 100% why I stay up until midnight putting red feathers and gold coins on things!
My parents helped us so much as well! It takes a village! My dad freehand drew the silhouettes and my mom cut them out! All those Peter Pan hats… yep my mom! so much help and love went into this fun party and I’ll never forget it!!!!!
