King Richard the Sly

Sunday was Solomon’s Birthday party with his Dad (me) and his Dad’s family. Part of my feeling is sadness that Solomon has to deal with knowing he has two birthday parties and two groups of family that do not interact. The other part of me is gleeful that I can throw him an unapologetically Solomon centered bash that caters to none of his (other families) special needs.

So Solomon is all about Beowulf and playmobil castles and halberd wielding barbarians running after fiery dragons (perhaps soon princesses). Thus we have ye olde themed birthday party. All shall wear crowns, helms or horns or if fair, the tiara shall adorn the locks of the maidens of yore.

As our family is, there was a lot of talking. There was also a lot of cake, interaction and way, way to many presents.

Yes. Richard always looks like this. Check the Flickr Box.
