Dax's Journal

Summer is big for birthdays so, for a few months at least, Dax has been telling everyone that he's three. And because of his natural contrary nature, I was not surprised in the least when I wished him a happy birthday this morning and he told me that today he turns two.

*sigh*

Yes, our baby is three. Which is....well, not a baby anymore. It is bittersweet, of course, because my baby is soooo grown up but it has been so much fun watching him get to this point.

To add to my "my baby is growing up" eekage? We went to Back to School Night last night where we were informed that he is no longer in preschool (he's in prekindergarten), that he'd be learning to write this year, that he'd have homework from time to time, and that he'll be learning to play the piano. How awesome is that? But again...the growing up. Must it happen so fast?

Tonight we'll celebrate quietly as he opens the presents from family and then on Sunday we're having The Big Bash at My Gym with all his little friends (and their parents, of course). Check back for pictures.

And feel free to share your happy birthday greetings with the boy here. I promise to read them all to him. :)
