Elijah was a little conflicted about his birthday celebration this year. He loved and was super excited about his celebration at Monkey Joe's, but he wanted to include his family, too. I explained to him that a lot of adults wouldn't enjoy themselves at Monkey Joe's. We struck a balance, and decided to have a special adult party on Sunday, which we invited the families. It was also special, since Dendi and Bapa had just returned from Italy and could attend and celebrate with us. Elijah made them a special sign to welcome them home.
We served everyone Elijah's favorite "fancy meal", which consists of Sam's Club Chicken, Za Za rice, broccoli and Sister Shubert's rolls. Then he opened presents.
Even more important than eating his favorite meal and opening presents was spending some quality time with his family. He was especially excited to have some silly time with Uncle Brian blasting off rockets.
