We celebrated my littlest guy’s birthday this week. He had chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast and went to school. I made a 6 year badge and crown, per request.
We joined him later at school for his birthday ceremony which involved him carrying the earth and walking around the sun 6 times to represent each year of his life. He stopped at me each time around and I shared something about his life to the class. It was all so perfectly sweet and his classmates were completely joyous about the special occasion.
Then we came home to presents and dinner out, where an opera singer sang to I-guy in Italian. That was pretty hilarious and kinda uncomfortable at the same time. Then home for delicious vegan cupcakes and playtime with new gifts. He asked for art stuff, so he received a carrying case full of creative items. The kid is mine, yes he is!
Happy Birthday to I-guy. May he get to walk around the sun many-many times!
I am so impressed about the very symbolic celebration held for him at school! What a special place for him to learn and grow! Little I guy makes our hearts so happy – glad he had such a perfectly perfect day!!!
Happy Birthday to your little one! And what an incredibly beautiful ceremony…
hmmm… art supplies?
I guess the crafty apple doesn’t fall far from the crafty mama tree, yes?
😉
I love his birthday celebration how fun and what a special event for everyone to enjoy! Birthday wishes sent his way!
What a great way to celebrate a birthday! I love the crown and the badge idea. Happy Birthday to you both!
So sweet. You’ve given me such great ideas for my little guy’s birthday! Congrats to you too, momma!
What an awesome birthday!
wish I could have come ~ it’s been a long time since I’ve been to a kid birthday! Happy Birthday I-guy!
What a totally sweet way for the school to help celebrate a child’s birthday, full of affirmation and fun!
The birthday celebration description made me so happy, what a wonderful way to recognize such an important day. What a fantastic teacher he must have! Your cupcakes look divine too!
Maia’s school does a similar “trips around the sun” celebration. So sweet, your little guy.
How totally delightful, all of it! Happy Birthday, you six-year-old! How does it go by so fast?
