We QuadriCeps attended two Chanukah parties yesterday, the last day of the holiday. The first was an adult party. While were there, Emily and Belle were the only attendees under 25 years old. Belle started out shy, but quickly opened up and sparkled. She enjoyed a snack, drank her water from a huge plastic cup, sat on many of the different sitting places, played dreidel, walked and ran around the apartment, and even introduced herself (sort of) to some of the other adults. She really was amazingly confident and social. At one point, encouraged by the party's hostess, Belle climbed up on a stool and helped distribute bottles of beer.
Our second party was a kids party at which Belle made and decorated cookies, sang and danced with a music teacher, and played with the other kids and toys. Again, Belle proved to be a wonderful party guest. Belle didn't cling to us or whine or cry or play rough with the other kids or make a mess (Belle hates a mess).
How did Craig and I get so lucky?
