I wasn’t kidding when I mentioned November was a marathon month. We went to two birthday parties on the 17th — so many Valentine’s Day babies š !! The first was all the way in San Jose, but was for Rachel, Sarah and Anthony’s daughter. It was a very sweet and very small gathering of only 4 kids (of which 3 were our’s!). They did song activities, a pinata and cake before we had to hustle everyone out to make it back to Santa Cruz in time for Evie’s bday.
I think normally, we would have just stayed at Rachel’s bday the whole day if Evie isn’t such a dear friend of Cameron’s! But, Cameron is still such a sensitive soul who I feel probably feels like her “stuff” is less of a priority than Dylan’s, that we made big efforts to get her to her buddy’s party.
We were very late, but she was able to do ziplining and some gymnastics floor time with the rest of the group. And, of course, we made it for cake time where she sat right next to the special bday gal!
I’m glad we were able to make the party! Cameron thoroughly enjoyed herself and, to this day, still talks about celebrating with Evie (and Jada!)! It will be tough when the girls are no longer at the same preschool, but I hope we can maintain some connection once the big girls (Jada and Cameron) start Kindergarten!
