Hana's second birthday party was this weekend and our house was plastered with images of Elmo. From the Elmo birthday cake to the Pin The Nose On The Elmo game, Hana walked through the house as if in some sort of Sesame Street wonderland. However, her shrill exclamations of pure joy were followed by episodes of little raspy coughs ... less than ideal for a birthday party scenario.
While we were on the mend and non-contagious, the dragging, left over effects of our virus were evident to everyone around us. Between Hana's constantly runny nose and my old lady cackle, I can imagine that our loved ones were leery to come too close. But despite our lingering sickness, everything seemed to run without a hitch. We had a wonderful time with our family, talking, laughing and catching up.
Our sincerest gratitude to everyone who traveled and were able to take time out of their Saturday to eat Elmo cake with us! We feel so blessed to have such caring, supportive and involved people to call our family and friends.
