Today is Sophia's first birthday. A year ago she came into this world covered in goo and throwing a rip roaring fit. Today, in honor of that momentous occasion, we allowed her to cover herself in goo and throw a rip roaring fit when she didn't have any cake left to eat. Clearly some things have changed a lot in the past year and some things have remained the same.
I was worried about the cake. I decided that I may be over thinking things. Sophia would eat dirt if I put it on a plate and gave it to her. I decided to take that train of thought to its logical conclusion.
My next biggest concern was whether or not the place would look festive. We put down some plastic table covers, threw confetti on them, and put up some signs that had the number one on them. Plus, there were balloons. That's festive, right?
The third most important thing is that my daughter smeared the appropriate amount of cake on her face.
She made me proud and proved to the world that we are raising her right.
All and all I think things went well. After all, there was free pizza and free cake. That has to be worth something.
A winning combination in my book!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have been there. She looks adorable, and everyone looks like they're enjoying it just as much as Sophia. Happy birthday, girl!
