Aunt Karen was out of town when we celebrated Myriam’s birthday, so she and Anthony came over. Once again, Aunt Karen proved that she is WAY cooler than Mom and Dad by showing up with fun balloons, fun gifts and fun “Big Anthony.” (The girls love the Strega Nona stories and one night Myriam turned to me and said “We have a Big Anthony- Aunt Karen’s Big Anthony!). I think the nickname is going to stick. The gorgeous (and yummy) cake was provided by Anthony. Moon sand and a fun new backpack completed the perfect birthday evening.
