Noah's turns one today - we are absolutely amazed at how quickly the year has gone. We feel so blessed with what he has brought to our lives and what the future holds.
Let me tell you a little about Noah's 1st Birthday - Lesson #68 for Jesse and Sara - the Best Laid Plans of mice and men often go awry.
- 4:30 am - Birthday boy wakes up screaming
- 4:40 am - Birthday boy not going back to sleep, Mom goes to see what is up
- 5:00 am - Mom realizes it is teeth and a cold at work, not an attempt at early partying, attempts to put Noah back to bed
- 5:15 am - Mom realized, attempt is futile and gets up
- 5:30-7:15 - Rotation of screaming, eating, seeking out Mom if she leaves sight, go for walk to get screaming to stop
- 7:40-8:10 - Sit in car while very tired Noah naps before leaving at daycare
- 10:00 am - Mom calls Dad and apologizes for being snarky, Dad says thank you, Dad says I have to go now to get the live bird out of the house that Ethel brought in
- 11:00 am - Phone call from Dad indicating "nut free" cupcakes are not to be found at Freddies as indicated
- 11:30am - Mom and Dad rejected from taking cupcake to Noah due "nut free" zone at daycare; dejected Mom and Dad visit Noah for a picture
- 11:45 am - Mom and Dad have lunch and discuss where the reset button is
- 12:15 - run into Jordan, ask her about drawing on her arm, how applicable "stay in the present"
- 12:45 - confirm babysitter for evening - need to go out and have drink as a couple
Moral of the story - plans can be made but they almost never go as intended.....roll with it, learn from it, laugh at it - or when all else fails have a drink!!
Happy 1st Birthday Noah - you are the apple of our eye:)
