| From Elise's 4th Birthday! |
Princess Elise and Princess Audrey Auna, ready to celebrate. They are just two weeks apart in age and Elise got to go to Audrey's party in March. A couple of weeks ago, Elise reached for the JoySchool Calender, which was a little high for her. I asked her if she needed help and she responded confidently, "I can do it, I'm four now!" It was sweet but it kind of broke my heart -she's growing too fast. She is such a loving, nuturing, sparkly daughter. We are so grateful for her and for her development. She is great at drawing her name and other letters, she loves art projects, singing and dancing. She is a joy.
Here is a collage of pictures showing our princess pizza & costume party preparations (cake, cardboard castle, playdough, kiss the frog), the night before the kids arrived... Aaron is as always, a wonderful antidote for my stress. He humors my ideas and does everything he can to help me, even though his philosophy is "simplify" and I tend to complicate things.
Damon and Ches couldn't make it to Elise's birthday celebration, so good thing we had some cupcakes at JoySchool a couple of days before!  |

We are so grateful for Debbie, Jeff and Michelle. They have been such a blessing to us ever since we moved here. At one point in the party, Debbie was on her knees, cleaning my floor! She is so thoughtful.
