Over the summer, we celebrated our big girl's 12th birthday. Foregoing the traditional ruckus pool party due to Covid, we planned a few surprises for her throughout her birthday week including a park picnic with her two best friends, a pedicure, a take-out Thai dinner, a drive-in movie with just mom and dad, and of course presents.
Happy birthday, Elder One! You are our late sleeper, messy eater, loud laugher, movie watcher, part-time poet, try any food at least once, fierce and funny, fast-talking fashionista. You like sleepovers, hot fudge sundaes, bike rides, visiting extended family, hair and make-up, video chats, and dreaming up your future. Your happy place is on the backyard spider web swing with your favorite songs playing and your hair blowing in the breeze. You don't like cleaning your room, correcting your math, being quiet, getting caught breaking the rules, doing extra chores, and not having a cell phone.
We love you.
on the swing listening to favorite songs sounds like someone I know. :-)
