I mean really? Where has the time gone? Friday was Zach's birthday and we did it big! He woke up and opened presents and then headed to school. I came and delivered cupcakes to his class for a little mini-party.
I stayed to volunteer and after class I took him to a surprise birthday lunch - just me and him. I debated on what to do and then it hit me - Dave & Busters. Let me tell you, it was life changing for him. His eyes were like dinner plates and he pretty much had the place to himself. From earning tickets to playing a Star Wars video game - it was kid heaven. At lunch, he just looked at me and said, "This place is AWESOME!"
With all of these tickets, he was able to take home a hippopotamus. We had so much fun and it was part of my many new mantras that "kids only have one childhood" so let's make it a good one (without spoiling them!).
