fancy and four

"What should I write about Sophie's birthday?"  I asked your dad.  

"That she couldn't be any cuter if she tried!" he replied (adoringly).

We had such a fun day with you!

It began with your birthday breakfast.  

You chose:  cinnamon rolls (I added scrambled eggs and fresh fruit)

We opened presents:  a Fancy Nancy doll with her dog Frenchy from your dad and I & a FurReal kitty from your sisters

We went to your violin lesson...and it was so much fun!

Your teacher said you were ready to buy your real violin!!!!  

(You have been using a little box!)

We drove straight to the music store.

It is SO cute and tiny!

We grabbed a quick lunch (you wanted Nielsen's).

Then doughnuts for a treat to share at preschool.

Miss Brittany (your sweet teacher) gave you a 4 beautiful balloons with a bag of gumballs.

It made your day!

You wanted homemade macaroni and cheese for your dinner.

You put on an apron and took all of our orders. :)

(blowing kisses - your idea)

You are precious in every way.

You make us SO HAPPY!

I am honestly a little bit crushed when I think of my baby being four years old...

and then I see your face and the delight you feel as you learn and grown....

and I feel joy.

Thank you Mike and Annie for the beautiful necklace~  she felt extra fancy!
