Well it is official, My baby is 6 years old. Not sure when that happened. Somewhere in between learning to walk/talk, preschool and swimming lessons I guess. Maisie is really blooming this year in Kgarden and is doing so well. She looks a little older each day. I remember ( I think every mother does this on their child's birthday) when I was in the hospital waiting to have her each new nurse would look at the chart and say " o its your birthday too, how sweet to have a baby on your birthday!" Well, My birthday doesn't really exist anymore, but that is OK. The fun that Maisie has with hers more than makes up for it. She has me tell her every day for months prior to the "BIG" day what holidays proceed her birthday. First Christmas I would say, then New Years, then Valentines day and then your Birthday! Now there is a small line at the end that she says, sometimes, " and your birthday too Mama." She loves it all. Cupcakes to school in the shape of hearts frosted pink, curlers in the hair for the actual day and for the party, Island Princess cake and party, 15 little kids (Maisie has such a big heart she couldn't leave anyone out. Every girl in her class and at church, and every neighbor child was invited, thankfully they all couldn't come!! The only thing that didn't go exactly as she planned was I shot down Hanna Montana and High School musical party's. I just couldn't do it. She is to little for those, next year I said!! We went for Chinese food on our birthday, our family favorite and Dairy Queen ice cream cake after. Are you beginning to see how this gets a little out of hand with both of ours on the same day... If you split them up the birthday takes a week or more, and if you combine then there are a million people in the house and crazy reins. Not fun for me. So enjoy the pictures and thanks to all who called and wished us well with cards. We are loved and we appreciate each of you in our lives!!
