Birthday

Owen is two!
When Owen woke up yesterday morning, he knew it was his birthday and that he could open his presents. He got beads for stringing, a dollar bill, puzzles, a tea set, a books (one of them was an Aesop's fable translated and adapted by Daddy), a wooden plane, play food, and play silks.

It was a lovely, sunny day, and we took a drive over to Longwood Gardens where we soaked up some more sun and walked through the gardens and conservatory.

Owen enjoyed looking at the flowers and really enjoyed playing in the children's garden area where there were lots of fountains to stick your hands (and head) in.

Owen took a nap for a while on my back, and woke up HUNGRY. We had sushi for a birthday late lunch/early dinner, and made carob coconut milk ice cream for a dessert at home.

We had a busy day, and we all slept well (if not quite long enough) last night.

thats so sweet, he's growing up wonderfully. I love Aesop's Fables and how great to have one that's especially from Daddy. :)
