The Ninth Inning

My baby turned nine last week.  NINE!  Next year we'll be in the double digits.  But for now we'll enjoy this ninth inning with our little league Yankee who celebrated his birthday with a bike ride and SURPRISE a new bike!


We rode down to the Yankee store at the South Street Seaport where he got a "real" NY Yankees baseball cap ("no adjustable strap on the back Mom!") and a jersey with his fave player Derek Jeter's number on the back.


Then we celebrated with a special shrimp and steak dinner requested by the birthday boy and prepared by Greggie which was, of course, fabulous!  We actually put the cart before the horse so to speak and had cake before dinner so that Lulu could partake in the festivities.


It took our birthday boy some time to ponder his wish but we're confident it was a good one and that all this kid's dreams will come true.


In fact, one dream already did come true.  The day after his birthday mom and dad took the day off of work and took him and his best bud Henry to Dorney Park, an amusement park in Pennsylvania with amazing rides!  It was a great day and will be a fantastic memory for the kid we're all so very, very proud of.

Happy Ninth Cavan Shane!
