We celebrated Aiden’s 6th Birthday with a Beach
Bash at ECU’s North Rec Complex this weekend. There was a short rain shower in
the middle of the party – perfect time for cake pops and snacks – but the bad
weather held off until RIGHT after the party ended!
The kids and some adults too, enjoyed an afternoon of
kayaking and paddling boarding. I was a little nervous, since you can’t swim in
the lake, that it was going to be hard to keep a bunch of youngins out of the
water but A has some awesome, well-mannered friends that played on the beach
and splashed until it was their turn to kayak! An extra special thank you to
the older kids and adults that helped us out and took kids out onto the lake,
we appreciate the help.
We really just wanted his friends to come, hang out and have
fun! So instead of gifts, Aiden asked his friends to bring a food item to be
donated to Backpack Pals and everyone was so generous!
I did catch some slack on the no gift request but don’t worry,
Aiden received plenty of gifts! He is a very blessed little boy with lots of
people that love and spoil him. We strive to teach him about giving back to
others; we talked about organizations and ways he could help and he chose
Backpack Pals! He is excited to drop off the items later this week.
Some days it feels like I blinked and here I am with a 6
year old, other days I’m counting down the minutes to bedtime, but this boy
changed my life and has my heart! He is full of energy and spunk, can
have a smart mouth (that’s the Jersey in him), always on the go, only has one
volume – loud, and can’t sit in a chair to save his life. He also has the
biggest, kindest heart, loves to learn & explore, is funny, and has the
best white-boy moves in Greenville. I’m so glad God picked me to be his mommy!
