As crazy as it is, Ryder is officially two. I say "officially" because he has been thinking he was two for the last six months. The day started off pretty rough, Ryder woke up MISERABLE. He was 
glued to me all morning crying. He cheered up a bit at the prospect of cake when I mentioned it as we took Sage to school. Sage insists it is not a Birthday without cake, so we had to make a cake, chocolate with chocolate frosting was Sage's pick for him. After nap time we iced the cake, and the kids enjoyed adding the sprinkles.
Even though Jay had some late work to do, Sage was persistent that we have a "party". She put on her pink party dress, and sang to him. They blew out the candles...several times. I think Ryder was more excited about the candles than anything else. Tomorrow we are going to dinner (with Jay), and continuing the celebration. Two years seems like such a short amount of time in the whole of things, but at the same time, I couldn't imagine life without him, without his smile, and his happy, carefree, giggly take on everything...(if that made sense). 
They do grow up so fast...childhood is just a blink of an eye if you look at the whole picture.
