Mason had the exciting opportunity to attend Caton's birthday party this summer in Austin. Caton is the daughter of my business partner, Stephanie. When Caton was born Mason & I went down to help Stephanie and her husband, Jim, for a few days. I'm not really sure how much help I was with my noisy 2 yr old (at the time), but they seemed glad to have us and we were certainly honored to be there.
Caton's 1st birthday was an affair the likes of which I have never seen! There was something for everyone. Stephanie had set up a play area in the house (since it was typical Texas summer weather), cupcakes, a selection of fancy grilled cheese sandwiches, and a TRAIN! Oh my! Mason was thrilled. I really wish Joseph had been able to make it to the party b/c Mason was beside himself with joy on that train. He kept looking at me and saying, "Just like Percy, Mommy! It's just like Percy!!!!!". Oh, my heart melted! He had a blast at the party and was a surprisingly good boy considering that we made the drive down and back in one day... and that we shared the ride with another friend and her newborn. It was a long trip, but worth every bit of effort! Sometimes life reminds you that you get out of it what you put in!
