Seven

Today is Heather’s birthday. Seven. Wow! It hardly seems possible. She is growing up so quickly.

She actually has had two parties in honor of this event. The first was an impromptu party on Saturday when Grandma’s expected ten guests changed their minds at the last minute leaving her with a clean house and party food for thirteen. She called to ask for suggestions of what to do with the food so I invited her to bring it to our house to celebrate Grandpa and Heather’s birthdays together. (We had actually planned to meet later that day at a restaurant.) They arrived with a cat cake minutes before Dad got Heather and the boys home from the Awana games. The look on Heather’s face was priceless!

The second party was just for our family today. We dined on pizza and soda and opened presents before heading off to prayer meeting/Awana. Then we had guinea pig cupcakes before bedtime.
