Behind again

Conor’s birthday was great. He had a great day, lots of fun, enjoyed (and enjoying) his presents, went out to dinner, everything was fine. Till the next day. He managed to pickup a fever, and had to stay home from school till Tuesday. This also meant that we had to reschedule his birthday party. Now, i was sure this was going to be a huge deal for him - he can be very sensitive to changes, and this was a pretty big change. However, Conor surprized both of us by being totally calm and cool about the whole thing. We are now on for this Sunday, Conor is on the mend (again, thank the gods for antibiotics) and things seem to be back on track.

Looking back over the past 5 years of Conor’s birthdays, he really hasn’t had great luck. Sick, scared or something always seems to come up for the guy. At least his actual birthday this time was good!
