Well, there was a change in plans after my last post. I hit "publish" and a within the hour I had an email in my inbox from a friend insisting that I allow her to throw Lukas a birthday party. So yesterday afternoon we celebrated Lukas' 3rd birthday thanks to my amazing friend. She did everything - bought the food and cupcakes, decroated her house with balloons and a happy brithday banner, bought Jake the Pirate themed plates and napkins, invited our friends and opened up her house to us. All I had to do was show up. I am so thankful to have friends who swoop in when life gets to be too much. Lukas LOVED his party and I could tell he felt so speciall all evening and couldn't stop talking about his new presents this morning before school.
So I have to say a very big thank you to Emily for making my little man feel very special for this third birthday. Yesterday meant more than I can express in words.

For all you busy moms out there, please remember one thing: It's OK to ask for help and to ACCEPT it when it's offered. It really does take a village.
