Madeline turns 6!

Our baby girl is 6.  6 whole years old.  She continues to amaze us every single day with her smarts, her hilarious sense of humor, her kind, tender heart, her flare for the dramatic, and her overall love of red lipstick, accessories, and life in general.  She is a blessing and a gift to her family and friends and its a joy to watch her grow and change day to day.  We are so proud of our sweet girl and the young lady she is becoming. Thanks be to God.

We started the celebrations with a birthday party on Saturday, May 13 at our house.  Madeline invited the little girls in her class, her cousins, and a few neighborhood friends.  We celebrated princess-style and decorated wands and crowns, ate cupcakes, and played in the backyard.  It was such a fun day!

The celebrations continued through that week, as we celebrated her actual birthday on May 19.  At her request, we went to eat dinner at Kanki with Vie and Papa and Mimi.  Yum!  What a wonderful week celebrating a mighty special girl.
