Luke’s Party

Luke was so excited to have a birthday party that we decided to throw him a big family party the day after his birthday.

We had a circus/carnival theme and I think he had a great time.

Luke was so wore out by the end of the day he had a little tired meltdown.

It’s his party and he can cry if he wants to (you knew that was coming).

However, I think he still went to bed a very happy boy!

And myself, even though I am a little sad that my boy is growing up I have been using the “You are 4 now so no more…” to my advantage.
