what a great party



















We had a fantastic birthday party, thanks to Lisa, Griffin, Julia, Margaret, Mary-Carla, Roch, Isabelle, Katherine, Denise, Kali, Alice, Danny, Hanna, Garth, Henry, Nell, Cindy, Donna, Gabriella, Michelle, Aubrey, Tamara, Gannon, Carylbeth, Erika, & Molly. (Hope I remembered everyone...) Others, too, who wrote & sent birthday wishes, wanted to come. Thank you all so very much. Major gratitude to Denise for the gorgeous photos.

During the party, Lars hung out with lots of different people & mostly did great- a little fussy at times, but quick recoveries. He was completely charming all evening after people left, eating a lot & singing. This morning & early afternoon he took a well-timed long nap in the hammock swing while we cleaned the house, cleared snow & ice, & frosted the cake.

Since Thursday Lars' days have been mostly happy & playful, but with terrible nights. Tonight will be my fourth consecutive & I'm tired & numb. Last night we "slept" for five hours, and during that time he woke up 19 times crying, requiring intervention. At one point he was up for a couple hours. Hoping it's just the cold he's had.. Tired is why I haven't written. Keep falling asleep with laptop on lap.

Like now. I'd better hit "publish" & go to bed.
