This past weekend we celebrated the Emperor’s third birthday. (And can I just say, HOLY CRAP! Where did those years go? I know that I lost at least one year to sleep deprivation, but *geesh*!)
Hee! I had this kind of thought about three days ago. I was looking through the photo albums, and I saw pictures of my P at 15-18 months. When he was 18 months old I was 8 months pregnant. And he was so, so beautiful -- one of the most beautiful little boys I've ever seen (of course I'm not biased) -- but I don't remember what he was like then. I was too busy moving (again) and being pregnant and tired and just stressed out in general, and now I can't remember what he was like then. It made me kind of melancholy. What else am I going to forget? Will I remember them at this age when they're adults?
Anyway, that was a whole lot of babble about me.
You're parents sound like a lot of emotional work. I'm glad it went okay. And don't feel bad, there are FAR worse organizers than you. (Only one of my children has ever had a birthday party with other little kids... ONCE.)
Also: Thomas and Little Einsteins. Hee. Add in some Veggie Tales and that's our kid DVD collection right there.
