Today was Owen's "Special Day" at preschool. Basically, they do "special days" instead of birthdays so the kids who have summer birthdays can have a celebration at school the same as everyone else. I decided I would ask our friend, Tracy, if she could babysit Adam so the day could be 100% focused on Owen. I thought that would make it even more special for Owen (and selfishly for me, I would be able to enjoy it more too.)
Luckily, Steve was home today as well so Owen got both Mommy and Daddy! However, everyone was either sick or on vacation at school so there were only about 5 kids there - but it didn't matter. All Owen cared about was the "pupcakes" and I drove all the way to Bellevue to make sure he had them for his celebration today.
He loved his special day. He got to jump over the candlestick first...held the classroom frog...wore a crown of glitter...got to have "corn" (Pirate Booty) for snack...everyone sang "happy special day to you"...blew out a candle...and ate a pupcake with sprinkles. Couldn't ask for a better day!

ReplyDeleteI put my first comment on the wrong post.....THIS one is adorable, as well. Laura is such a good mom to have gotten those perfect (and tiny) pupcakes for Owen. Happy Special Day to you, Owen!
