JW Tumbles is one of those local neighborhood kid gyms like a Gymboree, and it is where Max had his fifth birthday party, right before he started Kindergarten. It was in "long hair Max" days and he had a blast.
And Nicky wasn't even one yet...
We hadn't been back since, so it was another one of those "memory moments" when a flood of good/sad emotions hit at the same time.
This isn't so much a story about what happened during the party but more about what happened after...
After most of the guest had left JW Tumbles and we were loading up the car with leftover food, cake, Nic's presents, etc. Nic had his bunch of balloons that all the birthday kids get...
Nic must have got an idea...
Because he grabbed his Auntie Randee...
And told her that he needed to release the balloons...
So that Max could have them in heaven.
Happy Birthday Nicky. We love you! Max is surely smiling down on you today!
