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.

I am not sure if I’m raising caring kids or complete dog lover lunatics. I guess only time will tell.
