Grace turned five this past week and she had a very special day. Since she had to wait until the weekend to have her party, we tried to as much as we could to make her birthday memorable. It started with breakfast-in-bed (it was just her normal cereal and fruit, but she felt like a queen!) She said, "I'm just like a mommy on mother's day!"
Later that morning, I brought a birthday treat to Grace's class. I really enjoyed watching her interact with the others at school. It made me happy to see her already forming little friendships with kids she'll be with all year (possibly through high school!) After school "Daddy" met us at the park for picnic, and later we had Grace's favorite mea
l for dinner: Pancakes, eggs, sausage and fruit! Grace was giddy all day and loved the cards and phone calls she received from family and friends. She even got a special birthday package from Grandma and Grandpa Parkin. Everyone needs to feel that special at least one day a year!
