I am a day late celebrating Leo's birthday because we were busy partying yesterday. We celebrated with his parents, our friends here, including the family of "Little Boy." Leo grilled up some delicious meat, fish, and veggies, including a gigantic zucchini from our garden back home. His shirt is courtesy of Skylar, Mitch, and Pietro, and the front and back contain our favorite lines from the script, which Leo wrote. It is thus far, my favorite scene filmed.
The kids all had a blast playing in the sand, busting open a pinata, and eating gorgeous cakepops made by Lukas's Godmother, Tia Robyn. We actually doubled up on the celebrating since Leo will be filming all day on Lukas's birthday and won't really have much of a chance to see him that day. Leo's cake was a giant chipwhich, reminiscent of the ones my mom used to make for our birthdays when we were little.
As for the kids and I, we are just so grateful that God gave us the gift of Leo! He is an amazing husband and father, constantly sacrificing for us by working long hours, rushing home when he can to be there for bedtime, leading us with his wisdom, and uplifting us in prayer. He is our hero! So God, today we give you the thanks for bringing this wonderful man into the world and specifically, our lives.
Yeah, he's alright. He makes cute kids, though!
