Yep, Z - man is now perfect! I told him since he was God's perfect number, this was the year that he was going to be perfect. He just said, "Mo-om..." in the 17-year-old way. :) Z is such a sweet boy and we're especially proud of the way he plays so well with his little brother and doesn't even think it's a chore. This year the top things on his birthday list were, of course, LEGOs, but when we questioned him about which ones, he just said, "I'll be happy with whatever LEGOs I get, mom!" Good to know and good to remember for the after-birthday blues that can sometimes creep up after the anticipation is over. You know what I mean?! Actually, Mr. Z did a great job about being grateful.
We went out to the restaurant of his choice - Braum's - 'cause they have GOOD chocolate shakes. Then, he wanted to watch a movie. He picked Kung Fu Panda. We had a family party for him, but he and L are saving their birthday parties until they can have Boy's Day in June when the weather is nicer and friends can be outside partying! (Yes, that was my idea. From last year, but it will probably be the tradition around here for a while.)
SEVEN THINGS I LOVE ABOUT Z:
1. His dimples
2. How he can spend hours up in the playroom pretending with his Legos.
3. How he loves his Big Brother.
4. How he loves his Little Brother.
5. His Lisp (even though we're working on correct speech).
6. His methodical way of eating. Always the same. Creature of habit.
7. His lips that stick out when he gets upset.
