Last Friday, Allie got to celebrate her "summer" birthday at school. She was so excited because there is a whole birthday routine and she talks about it all year, so this year she got to do it. Her pre school has a birthday celebration at the park to celebrate all of the summer birthdays (and we did that last year), but I was not sure if we could make it, so we planned this one earlier, to make sure she had a "birthday" at school. It is so crazy what makes little ones tick, and the little things that mean so much. Allie is full of love and has a huge heart, so this is the stuff that she loves! This will be something to look back on and smile. She got to wear a special crown, stand on the birthday chair (huge deal in her eyes), blow out the special candle, ding the bell 5 times since she is "5 now" and got to bring special cupcakes for her friends and teachers. Paige got to go to the celebration, and we stayed most of the morning. She fit right in...you will see her in the mix of all the other kiddos at school. She will be more than ready to start when she is 3. Grandma Ganne and Paka joined the fun too. We had a good celebration and I even brought my camera.
As I was getting all of the stuff ready to take to school Allie said "and you know that little silver camera you have? you can bring that, cause all the moms do that when they come for a party". Happy early 5th Birthday Gracer Mace!!
The guest speaker at school was a nurse (and our neighbor) so she let Allie be the patient and wear a cast. She thought it was cool at first, but then did not like having the cast on! Lets hope she never needs one....
