Austen always makes an impression when attending birthday parties:<\/p>\n

Birthday party #1: Austen is handed a piece of cake and screams (for all the hear), “No! I want a big piece!” (She doesn’t even manage to finish her “small” piece.)<\/p>\n

#2: Austen sees the birthday boy sitting with his piece of cake and tries to get into his chair, yelling, “No, that’s my birthday cake!”<\/p>\n

#3: Austen sees an unwrapped present she likes, grabs it, and tussles with birthday girl over it. Both fall down, knocking over a pile of presents. Everyone gasps loudly! Mama is mortified: “Naptime! Time to say ‘Bye bye.'”<\/p>\n

For the most party, Austen is fun, playful, social and enthusiastic at birthday parties (she loves to sing “Happy Birthday” and say “Happy Birthday!” and hand her gift to the birthday child) but she never gets through a whole party without at least one “incident” that makes Mama blush. Mama was such a shy, reserved child who never made a splash. Austen, on the other hand, never goes unnoticed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
