An Extra Day

So I am wondering what everyone else did with their extra day this year??? Four years ago I decided (well, maybe not me) to have a baby on this special day. February 29, 2004 at 5:44 AM Garrett Scott was born weighing in at 8lb 9oz. Compared to the nearly 10 lb Hunter, Garrett seemed so small. But immediately he stole my heart. And, to make him extra special, God gave him fused toes on his right foot...how cute!

Since this day only comes once every 4 years, Garrett got to celebrate his first birthday at four! And believe me when I say this: it is very complicated to explain this phenomenon to a four-year-old! Maybe by his second REAL birthday (or 8 yrs) he will better understand just how special the 29th of February is.

We had a birthday party this evening for Garrett and Hunter. The theme was Spider-Man (surprise, surprise) and the boys had a wonderful time. I am completely exhausted, and will have to post more tomorrow, including some pictures. Good night!
