Yesterday I woke up early and knocked out a few hours of work before logging off and driving home. While we were all sad to leave Nana's house, it was time to return home. Robby had a make-up guitar lesson in the afternoon and both boys have a small pile of schoolwork they need to tackle. As much as they complained about waking and leaving early, everybody was happy to be home by lunch.
Not only did we need to return to our obligations, but we also needed to get home to prepare for Timmy's 8th Birthday Celebration part 2. (Because Scott did not get to see Timmy on his official birthday we opted to simply extend the celebrations.) Between meetings and driving Robby to his lesson, I was able to wrap Timmy's presents and prepare his favorite dinner. By the time Scott came home from work, the house was decorated and we were already in party mode.
Timmy was over-the-moon with his party and presents. He was thrilled with his copy of Starry Night (his request) and his new Nerf Gun. Even though he liked our gifts, Robby left his brother speechless. He gave Timmy a YouTube Play Button that he had purchased on Amazon. Timmy spent the evening laying on his bed, looking at his Play Button on one wall and his Starry Night print on the other. Every 30-40 minutes he would run into Robby's room, give him a huge hug and thank him again.
I don't really understand his fascination with both the print and the Play Button, but there is no doubt that both gifts are now prized possessions.
