It’s your birthday! (August 17)
We’re celebrating Lucas’s 4th birthday today on Whidbey Island with family. After a great day hanging out with animals at the Island County Fair, we had a morning party for Lucas with his cousins, complete with a loganberry pie and fruit smoothies (Lucas could enjoy the latter through his g-tube.) Lucas isn’t much of a birthday guy – unlike some kids his age he hasn’t been anxious with anticipation in the weeks leading up to his birthday. Rather, he woke up today like it was any other day, requesting to read his favorite books, retelling stories of the cows he met yesterday (Bruce and Tinker), and enjoying a good snuggle in the “special Lucas bed.” But it’s certainly another momentous occasion for us. Happy birthday Lucas Camilo!
UPDATE: Thanks everyone for sending videos. We’ve been watching them since we got back to Seattle tonight and Lucas is loving it! Favorites so far:

Happy belated birthday, Lucas. Lucky you, living in the Land of Loganberries. MMMMmmm. I remember them from our days living in Washington. The color is as fabulous as the taste–I hope you got to paint things up a bit. Have a great 5th year!

When Rosemary heard it was Lucas’s birthday she wanted to sing him happy birthday. She gets a little shy and forgets that it is not skype in the middle but on the whole a good effort. Happy Happy birthday Lucas!
