oh, what a day this has been... starting at 5:30! no, i didn't wake her. lily did. and since, it's been full of excitement and sugar... and birthday boots!
- birthday donuts for her class treat.
- lunch with daddy... her choice... chili's.
- family dinner... her choice... mcdonalds (specifically "the big one"). let me pause here and tell you that i offered to take her anywhere** she wanted to go for her birthday dinner. i mean anywhere**. apparently i didn't explain that "anywhere**" means you have to look at the footnotes, and here it means no mcdonalds. next time, i'll be sure to explain the limitations before i make the offer!
- dessert/birthday cake... mama's suprise... cherry berry (yum!) with aunt b and big dad.
we sang "happy birthday" and i'm pretty sure much of cherry berry did, too!
then... it was off to get her a pair of boots. yes, that's what she asked for. my little heart was pitter-pattering when she picked them out. she loves them!
my little cowgirl!
she's adoreable in them. on the way home from getting her boots, i was telling her about the day she was born. i told her about holding her and staring at her. i told her how in love i've been with her from the first moment. i told her how thankful that i am that God gave her to me. i told her how proud of her i am and how much i enjoy being with her. i paused and then she spoke... "um ok, but... are you done, cause i want your phone"... really? really. someday she'll understand. someday.

AWwW, she is precious. This post makes me think Gracie and Hope could be best buds.
