She waited and waited . . . and Rachel's birthday finally arrived! I really can't believe our "baby" is now leaving her toddler days behind her! We began the day as we do every birthday, with singing and presents.
I didn't get a photo of them today, but we gave her some little dolls and a working toy mixer. She used it to whisk our eggs for our chocolate chip cookies this afternoon. She requested baking chocolate chip cookies, just as she does almost every day. Lucky for her, we go through chocolate chip cookies almost that quickly!
She wanted a butterfly cake, with mom and baby butterflies on it.
We made a stop at Hobby Lobby and found some mama butterflies in the party aisle and some babies in the scrap booking aisle! Cake decorating took on a whole new and--easier dimension--when I realized that cake decorations need not be edible. :)
The girls decorated a beautiful butterfly cake together after school.
Happy Birthday, Rachel! May all your 4 year old wishes come true!
