Anders turned SEVEN yesterday.It was a wonderful day. Anders was absolutely so thrilled to have his birthday and bubbled with happiness all day long. His joy was contagious. He woke up at 5:00 in the morning, unable to sleep any longer. He tried very hard to return to sleep, but finally at 6:15 the rest of us trotted downstairs to prepare his birthday tray. He's the kind of kid who savors things, so he chose to open only one present (the smallest) and to unwrap the rest of them throughout the day. We got ready and headed to a climbing gym nearby for his morning party. He invited 5 friends to join him and everyone was harnessed up and taught how to climb up the 25 foot wall. Anders was the first to head up and easily scampered to the top. Everyone else followed and they spent a chunk of time climbing and descending. Then they proceeded to the zip line where the kids had to step off of a platform at the second story and zip along whizzing in mid air. I was amazed at how brave 7 year olds are! It was probably one of the most fun birthday parties he's had.
