a birthday morning
walking into her room
birthday cupcake
admiring the bed and the balloons
cupcake time
apron
books
flamingo bodysuit and mermaid slippers
cupcake break
princess picnic to celebrate her “princess castle bed”
for over two weeks Lily asked if her birthday was that day
she knew it was coming and every. single. day she asked if that was the day
she was excited
then the day came, she had the spotlight and…. she got a bit shy
not as shy as last year when she had to share her birthday with Elmo but she wasn’t bouncing off walls screaming it was her birthday
who am i kidding though, she is not really that person
maybe one day she will be but for now, she isn’t
she took her time unwrapping every gift and took her time trying it on and appreciating it
she enjoyed her special day her way
in a quiet way and with a lot of wardrobe changes (wink)

Happy Birthday Lily!!!! I wish Lily and I were there to give you a big hug 🙂 Claudia, our computer crashed..hence the no blog posts for over a month. My dumb iPad doesn’t upload pics to posts. I do have a draft post before the crash, so I will post that. I really do miss my blogy friends. Please send me your address. I would love to send Lily a little something from Cali.
