She wants to be 5. Not 7, not 4 anymore but 5. She made her cupcakes herself to her absolute delight. She only liked dessert, "chicken"(turkey), and sort of the frog-eye salad at dinner, she had a perfectly happy day and feels oh so lucky that she had a birthday on Thanksgiving. Her only complaint was that she couldn't have her friend Aspen at her "party". Next year my dear, next year.
This year she got to celebrate with our good friends The Stonely's who were so generous to have us over amidst their wood floor installment! It was a nice time. I'm doing better, I actually got a couple of pictures, unfortunately, they aren't really that great. This is the memorable "now it is finally time to have dessert" announcement to the 10 men/boys in the house. They almost imploded waiting. There was also lots of flag football/football type games, wrestling going on in the backyard and Stecher/Stonely adults were pretty much just happy to sit and eat real food sans enfants and not decorate rooms, cook, or put in flooring! Here's to completed, or nearly completed projects and the gratitude we have for strong bodies, houses and the means to make them into homes to raise children in!Happy Thanksgiving to all.
