Romney was extremely uninterested in celebrating her birthday this year. For some reason, she was just not that excited and wanted to do almost nothing. I think she was having very mixed feelings about returning to school and besides, school was starting on her birthday. Frankly, I believe she spent much of the day before her birthday in tears.
What else could I do but make her a cake and send her on a Target trip with her sister to buy legos? That's exactly what I did, and it perked her up a bit. We had a good laugh over her cake which kind of evolved into this hilarious dorky unicorn, which we made on her birthday eve.
She also picked out a lego set that was a model of a kingfisher, bird and it brought her smiles to watch a movie and build it. Legos can be magical that way.
And her happiest thing on her birthday was of course getting a visit with a big hug from Nicholas, and then going to watch shows with him and a few other friends. I'm telling you, it was extremely low key.
So with very little excitement, Romney is now 19.
