Because of us moving last month, Little Man was fine with us bumping his birthday party back to May so we could really enjoy the time with him and his buddies. Andy took Ra, and his 3 best buddies to Dave & Busters for dinner and video games. They had SOOOO much fun. Ra has some incredible friends - when they were looking at what to spend their points on when his BFF says, why don't we put all our points together and get that car that Ra really likes. Ra didn't want them to do that until the boys insisted. Andy said it was completely driven by his friends and he let them work it all out on their own. They all decided that was what they wanted to do, so they talked to the clerk, worked it out and they got the Lamborghini car model for Ra. It almost brought tears to my eyes to think that his friends love him that much that they'd be so selfless to give up their own points and the chance to get something for themselves, that they'd give them all to Ra for his birthday. I have told all the parents how much these 3 friends mean to him and how we want to cultivate their friendship so that they know that the other "has their back" and that they have someone they can talk to when they need someone. All 3 kids come from great families and we want to encourage their relationships to grow and become solid for years to come.
Ra wanted to have whoopee pies for his party instead of cake. I made GF pumpkin and converted my Nanny's lemon flavored into GF. They were a hit with the boys!
Happy Birthday Ra!
The boys enjoyed a late night swim. It was the first time we've used the pool at night. Our pool was money well spent - the kids had so much fun and we have no regrets putting in a pool...One of our best decisions!
Ra had an incredible evening. One of the boys was able to sleep over so the party continued into the wee hours. I am so thankful for the friends God has brought into our Little Man's life. I pray that these boys continue to be friends for life.
