Tre's birthday weekend!

My poor little Tre had trouble going to sleep tonight.  He came in our room in near tears saying that he wanted to go to Heaven when Jack and I went.  I assured him that is VERY far away and he said, "but even when you are old, I still want to go to Heaven with you!"  My love.  He worries so much.  He is the sweetest thing, but I hope he doesn't give himself ulcers some day!  We talked and called daddy.  I tucked him in again and told him to count and he never came out again.

He had his birthday party yesterday.  We gave him the option of having a "real" birthday party at a place and that would count as his present (birthday parties are so darn expensive these days), or to have one at home with family and we would get him a present.  He opted for the family birthday and I was secretly relieved!  He was so excited ALL week.  He would jump out of bed (which TOTALLY NEVER happens on school days) and say how many days till his party.  The day of the party, he woke me up with a huge grin!

We planned to swim, but it was too cold, so we turned on the hot tub, arranged a scavenger hunt, played wii bowling, etc.  One bonus is that Jack was flying in the air show in NOLA and wasn't supposed to come, but it got cancelled because of weather and he got to drive in and acted like he was the pizza man!  Tre was so excited!  After he opened his presents and had cake, he told me that this was his best birthday ever!  I was worried having a party at home would be a bummer for him, but he didn't care one bit!  He had a blast with his cousins!

I love that kid!  I can't believe he is going to be 6 on wednesday!!!  Boo hoo!  Time needs to slow down!
