Nic turned 6 on the 2nd. His birthday fell on a Thursday which meant we had usual school and work activities throughout the day. There's a small slot in the day when we're all together. It happens when the kids get off of school. I usually have just a couple minutes where I can ask them how their day went before I leave to work. So on Thursday when this "free slot" came, we all gathered around and sang Happy Birthday to Nic. Ti made him a chocolate cake and cooked shrimp alfredo for dinner. Nic's 2 favorite things-- shrimp and pasta. It was really low key. I felt bad because he kept asking when everyone was going to come over to help celebrate. We had to explain to him that everyone was at work, but that we had something special planned for him on Monday (Labor Day). That whole weekend the kids kept bugging us about what we were going to do for Nic's "party". Ooooh the suspense...
