Half Birthday

"The kids are going to be 18 months old this weekend," I said to my husband. "What do you think about celebrating their half birthday? It doesn't have to be anything big..."

"I think it's ridiculous," he said.

"I know, but it would be fun, and why not make it special for them, you know?"

"You really need this, don't you?" he said.

"Yeah."

"OK then, let's do it."

So we had balloons and cupcakes and legos, lots of legos (their first, and they love them) to celebrate Luke and Zo turning 1 1/2.

We might not do half birthdays every year, but this year, with all the sadness in our house, having a little celebration was the right thing to do.
