Party! Party!

At this point in Ek's life, birthday parties= Guaranteed Fun. We had two opportunities today for such fun. This morning it was twin boys from school. It was a classic birthday party, in the backyard running and playing, hot dog lunch, cake, pinata, more playing. They were chasing each other, playing football- but not Ek, and playing on the see-saw. Such great fun. So simple, just wonderful. She left saying it was the best party ever. tee-hee. This afternoon we had dear dear Kardyn's first birthday party with friends ever. She turned 5 and she was so excited. It was a dress up party and the girls changed literally countless times. There were 4 college girls there who love Kardyn and for the last probably almost hour of the party Ek and Kardyn had a fashion/gymnastics/cheer leading party for them. Hilarious. I love parties because I not only get to visit but I also get to see my kids smile and laugh for hours straight. It was a great day.

On the way home we listened to Ek's favorite song in the car. The chorus goes "There's a great big party goin' on in Heaven when a soul comes home! All the Angels sing a beautiful song in Heaven when a soul comes home!" Won't it be awesome.
