Birthdays…
I don’t know why but I try to get Jeffrey, and Alexis when she’s older, excited for other people’s birthdays. I’m not sure exactly but I guess it’s because I want them to be excited for someone else. I’m hoping it teaches a life lesson of happiness for others. It’s also a plus on their birthdays because they get excited too. With that being said…Fozzy (our dog) and Jeffrey are 11 months apart. So last year Fozzy turned 1 and we got very excited, we even got him Puppy Paws ice cream and sang. We did this so Jeffrey would get prepared for his birthday in a month.
This year, Jeffrey has taken over all the excitement. I joked around and asked him what we should buy Fozzy, he said we should buy him the movie “Cars”. I told him at the beginning of the week Fozzy would have a birthday. All I had to do was say “Happy Birthday Fozzy”… and that was it. Jeffery was so excited! He kept saying “It’s Fozzy’s birthday! It’s Fozzy’s birthday!” over and over. I think “Fozzy’s 2 now.” Was in there as well.
Jeffrey carried this excitement with him to day care. He came running in telling Ms. Vickie the same thing. I guess he was very excited. He apparently told Danny’s mom about Fozzy. His excitement must have won Ms. Vickie over because when I went to go and pick them up, Fozzy had a present in Jeffrey’s cubby!!! I could not believe. Ms. Vickie told me it was the best thing she could do on short notice. It was so sweet of her.

Jeffrey was all excited to show Fozzy. After dinner, we sang Happy Birthday to Fozzy and took a picture. 
I am not sure if I’m raising caring kids or complete dog lover lunatics. I guess only time will tell.
