This is my wee groundhog, born seven years ago today. We celebrated at Chuck E Cheese with a few friends yesterday, but today was the real deal. We left the digital camera in the van yesterday of course, so I have nothing to share yet. Film is soooo slow but I still love it.

His final creation. I know you can't tell, but that is a dinosaur cake. Truly.

Somehow it always devolves into some major food mess with hands squishing things and goo in the hair. Bathtime followed and a sweet smelling Jalen joined us for some ATC making. He didn't know we'd gotten it all out to make him some birthday art.

When we handed him a stack of ATC's to add to his collection he said "Yay, more cards!!"
"Do you want to look at them?" I inquire.
"Nope" was the simple response.
Just "nope". He's satisfied that there is more art in his collection to trade. That's all he cared about. I posted some pics of my ATC's over at the
Tea With Ren blog where I'm documenting my
"Thing-a-day" involvement.

Sharing a moment and some peach with Freebie. I just love his happy eyes. Happy Birthday sweet Jalen Kai. You are no calm ocean but tidal waves don't beg forgiveness do they? Thank you for being my continual bhodisatva. I am a better person because of you. I love you Kaiboy.:)
