My little girl is 6 already!!! She's truly a joy in our lives! It's interesting because, even though I am not in a hurry at all for her to grow up, I've been enjoying her getting older. Just because we are starting to find common interests here and there and do things together. I am excited to have her as a friend too.
This year, I gave her the option to have a party or a celebration, like last year, but including Build a Bear, something she's been asking me to do for a while. She chose the celebration and Build a Bear :)
Because I love get togethers ... I decided to throw a movie night and invite her cousins and friends. I loved it that the adults actually stayed and it turned out to be a really fun celebration! I wish I took pictures of everyone ...
She asked for brownies and ice cream, instead of a cake.
On her birthday, the day started early with her ready to go find her gifts. She asked me to hide them. Plus, she woke up to a bunch o balloons in her room. She loved it!
I planned to go to Kneader's for breakfast but she insisted on McDonald's! haha .. I don't blame her!
Then, to Build a Bear we went. She loved the whole experience and I actually enjoy it too! The ladies sure make it fun! She picked a cute soft dog and named her Rosie, because she looks just like her friend's Cassie's dog :)
We walked around mall afterwards and she even got a little git at the Lego store because it was her birthday!
The birthday girl needed a massage too ...
Then, as per her request, late lunch at Cafe Rio!! I just can't deny that! haha
A little later after the Rio, Dacia and Joe's family came over and she got to play with her cousins. She had such a good time today! I am so happy for her!
Here's a little bit about her -
She teaches me patience and thoughtfulness. She's fun, smart and pure. She shows me often that playing games with her is more important than my "to do" list. I am grateful for that. Today is her day. All planned by her. I am not sure what I did to deserve such an amazing daughter, but she's mine. She's my one and only girl and I couldn't have asked for a better daughter and friend. Happy birthday beautiful! I love you so very much!!
