Michael and Cameron’s 3rd Birthday - April 2006

The boys spent their 3^rd birthday in Auckland and in Cameron’s case at Starship Hospital. Michael woke up all excited at RMH and he was allowed to open a couple of presents & I texted a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Cameron. After breakfast Michael, Abbie & I, went to see Cam.

Nana Rose, Aunty Sonje and Jesse had brought Michael back up to Auckland the day before and had brought presents from home and a secret BIRTHDAY CAKE made with love from Aunty Lish. The nurses on the Ward had painted a HAPPY BIRTHDAY sign and made cards, and had hungs balloons. After the Doctors rounds we were basically left to ourselves for the boys to enjoy the day until lunch-time. We had air popped popcorn, lollies & more lollies. Nana also brought balloons and bubbles to blow!

The boys got DVD’s from us (to watch & pass the time), tractor sets, and the BIG present a Thomas the tank Engine Set. They also got lots of wonderful presents from all of our families and were definitely made to feel special. They also received gifts from all of the staff at Ward 23B, along with cards, and so had so many presents they really didn’t know what to do with them all.
