Our neighbor and Charlie's BFF, Leila, turned two this weekend. We have been talking about her birthday party all week, and we were excited to help Leila celebrate. Leila is a big Elmo fan just like Charlie. She had Elmo balloons and even an Elmo cake. Charlie enjoyed blowing bubbles, eating cookies, and playing with balloons.
We were having a fantastic time until Elmo showed up in person. Oh how I wish I could properly describe the scream that came out of my child. I was shocked by his response. Charlie was so traumatized by the sight of Elmo that we actually had to leave. I have never seen him move so fast up a flight of stairs. Poor thing cried the whole walk back to our house and kept saying that Elmo was too big. I think it's safe to say that we will be avoiding costumed characters in the future.
