Yesterday evening we went to Zoe's birthday party, she turned one year old over the weekend. Zoe is one of the little girls in our playgroup who holds a special place for us for two reasons. The first reason is her Mom, Jen is the only person living in the area who I knew before we each have kids (we both worked at the Barnes and Noble here) and I still know now that we are both Moms, which is really great for me, unfortunately for us we just found out they will be moving to California in January, I am very happy for them but a little sad for myself. The second reason they are special to us is that Zoe is the first friend's name Chance said, and after that all babies were Zoe for a long time. Jen and her husband Adam co-manage a U-Haul in Kenner, LA which means they live in the apartment right above the U-Haul office, I have always wondered what those apartments are like and I can now tell you they are pretty nice, spacious and well laid out plus it's free for them to live there.
All the kids had a great time playing with all the "new" toys that they had never seen before and the adults all had a good time just talking. And of course all the little guys enjoyed eating cupcakes and watching Zoe open her presents. Zoe was so cute eating her birthday cupcake and getting it all over her face. We will definitely miss Jen and Zoe, but there are a few more playdates between now and then so we will see them again before they go.
