MY SON'S 2 YEAR BIRTHDAY - MURPHY'S LAW IN ACTION!

Have you ever heard of Murphy's Law? Sometimes I feel like that would be a great tagline for my life. Yesterday I threw a 2 year birthday for my son. I know, he won't remember it (or maybe he will), but it wasn't so much for HIM as it was to mark the passage of another year of his life, and to celebrate that with friends and family. Not that I need to justify myself! When I woke up yesterday morning it was overcast. I had hopes it would clear up, but it never did. Who knew you could have a great beach party whether the sun is shining or not. The reality is, kids can have fun wherever they are and whatever they're doing - the weather doesn't matter! The party went on for hours and as soon as all the kids cleared out, guess what? The sun came out! And sure enough, when I woke up this morning, it was a sunny, clear day. So, what did we do? We took our son to the beach and believe it or not, I had more fun in the couple hours I was at the beach with my son and just a few family members than I did the day before with 80 of our closest friends. You think I'd learn!
