Ben's Birthday "Party"

We have had a really rough spring here in the Witmer house.  One or both of the kids have been sick almost every week.  We wanted to so something special for Ben's birthday so we planned a very small party with a few friends, neighbors and my family.  Everything was all ready and then 2 hours before people were supposed to come, Ben got sick.  Everyone who had kids didn't come but my parents and our neighbors were here to have a little celebration.  Ben was a good sport and even ate some cake (he was a little tentative.  Had he been feeling well I know he would have dug into it immediately!).  Thanks, Mom and Dad, for making the trip and for all you brought, especially the beautiful cake, and thanks everyone who called and/or sent something.  He was still feeling well when we opened the gifts and he loved it!  Hopefully he'll be feeling well on his 2nd birthday!

  2. Kara was sick on her first birthday too. Not fun. I love all your recent posts...haven't been keeping up too well with checking your blog. Love the letter to Ben...and the stock photos. Your kids will love to read this when they grow up. (Can you print these things out or just hope that they will still be able to access them when they are grown?)
