Gifties

We have been talking a lot about Wesley's upcoming birthday. I'm not sure he gets it yet, but that doesn't stop me from planning. We've been reading Spot's Birthday Party nearly everyday. At the end of the book I sing "Happy Birthday" to Spot and then I tell Wesley his birthday is coming soon. Apparently at least part of the message is getting through to Wesley. This morning he handed me his plastic cups of pretend milk and juice from his kitchen set. As he handed them to me he said, "Milk. Juice. Happy Birthday to you!" I guess calcium and vitamin C are pretty good gifts, at least from a toddler.
