Birthday Party Mania Part II

My husband and I decided last night that we should throw Scarlett a birthday party after all. Originally, we had decided to just have a small family get together for her 2nd birthday but it seems like every single one of her friends has had or is having a birthday party. We felt bad that she won't be enjoying all the fanfare also. It's sad but cute that she doesn't understand yet what a "birthday" really is. A couple of days ago, I was telling her that her birthday is coming up soon and how she gets to have a cake. She didn't really understand what I was talking about. When she heard "birthday," she immediately said "Elia birthday" and "Lacey birthday". She doesn't know that she gets one too. So I guess shoot us for jumping on the bandwagon but we want her to feel special too - I'm looking forward to seeing her expression when everyone sings her a happy birthday.
