William has a lot of family around that love him. He is always going places and finding all the love he could ever dream of. It's funny cause he actually has been in trouble at school before for hugging too much. I'm sorry, but I don't think there are too many other reasons I'd be happy for my kid to get into trouble for. He had a birthday celebration at his school on his birthday this year. It was a special treat for me to be able to pick him up afterwards. I took part of the day off to help decorate and get everything ready for his big special day.
About a month ago I asked Will "what do you want to have for your birthday party?" We looked through a Birthday Express catalogue and there he found "Toy Story 3" party stuff. He said "mommy, can I have a Woody birthday, please?" It was so sweet. I said "of course you can....whatever you want." I didn't order from there but found everything he liked near by.
With Will's birthday being themed "Toy Story" we actually ended up getting him Toy Story gifts too. It wasn't intentional but he loved it. We originally had planned to have his birthday party at our house, but with how many people we were inviting we decided the Pizza Factory would be a better location. Aside from the local elementary school deciding to put on a holiday musical on Will's birthday, a week and a half before, everything turned out ok. We had to rush and do a birthday celebration in about 35 minutes. Between pizza, presents and ice cream cake it was a whirlwind. Will had his friends Dev, Jessica, Rylee, Alex, Sammie, Hugo, Tommy, and Jaycee help him celebrate. All of them had to leave pretty early except Hugo and Tommy. Will had a lot of fun. The only 'hard' part was having to hold off playing with each present, cause he had to open the next one quickly. All in all everything moved along smoothly and we had some great memories.
Grandma, Great Grandma, and Grandpa were there at the party as well as all the parents. They were all great at helping make everything so perfect. I know that Will might not remember his party but we were sure to take lots of pictures and will tell him all about it.
It's so hard to believe our baby boy is no longer a baby. He is so active and seriously the most tender hearted little boy I've ever known. He would walk each of his friends into the party with a hand on the back and saying "thank you for coming, let me show you where to go". I have no doubts that he knows he's special. We cherish these moments. We are so blessed to have him in our life.
