"Wow, that was fast!” was what I was thinking when I opened my front door and found that my Birthday In a Box had been delivered. I waited until Lil Man wasn't looking, and then I stashed the box in the basement before he could see it. I was excited to see what was inside, but I had to wait until nap time. I didn't want him to get a glimpse of it until we had it all set up and ready for him. Finally, I was able to take a peek. And I was not disappointed. My box contained a Cookie Monster Pinata with 3lbs of candy. And I'm talking the good stuff - warheads, lemon drops, blow pops, sweeties and the list goes on and on. I admit that Hubby and I indulged a little (ok, maybe a lot) in the candy before it ever made it in the pinata. I wasn't sure how Lil Man would react to the pinata. He’d never been at a party where there was one. So I wasn't sure what his reaction would be. Since he’s only 2, we decided that blindfolds...
