thanks robert!

greta arrived home from the playdate to find a package waiting for her from her future boyfriend, robert. robert is the son of my college roommate julianne and her husband jason. robert and greta ended up being born just 6 days apart!! and as much fun as it was being pregnant together, i feel so lucky to have our children be so close in age. julianne is a fantastic friend and sometimes its such a relief to talk to her on the phone and share the ups and downs of parenting.
anyway, little robert was thoughtful enough to remember greta's 1/2 birthday, which is tomorrow. turns out he is just as thoughtful as his mom, who was always good about remembering my 1/2 birthday as well as my real birthday in college, even if i did ruin a surprise or two. robert sent greta this toy as a 1/2 bday gift. it's perfect, as you can see in the pictures. the first picture is her enjoying the toy, which she did for most of the evening. the second picture looks like i made her pose, doesn't it?!
