Joey says he had a really terrific birthday, and I'm glad that he is able to be so happy without the bells and whistles and over the top celebrating that I could have done. Simple blue decorations and a blue birthday cake made him so happy. For 2 months he's been talking about his chicken nugget, macaroni and cheese, and green bean dinner. I tried to negotiate a more exotic meal for him, but then realized that he was doing exactly what he should do on his birthday which is get the meal you really want to eat. Every other night, Joey is the last one at the dinner table trying to stomach down meals he isn't interested in. So, tonight, he got exactly what he wanted. Plus, I got the dino shaped chicken nuggets...yeah, I'm a good mom. Then we reminded him he hadn't even opened his presents. Seriously, he's just a happy kid.
He also got a special skype call from Daddy (who called on his lap top from the restaurant where he was dining in Tennessee). You'd think that we would do that more often, but this is the first skype call we've had with Daddy.
Thank you for all the birthday wishes and phone calls. Joey really does enjoy talking on the phone.
