Hard to believe that almost 7 years ago I was pregnant. How the time flies. My little girl and first baby is now 6 years old. Katelynn had been so excited for her upcoming birthday. Every day she would see or hear about something she wanted for her birthday. After not winning the Mother of the Year award last year for my choices in gifts I stuck strictly to her list this year. The night before her birthday we blew up balloons, wrapped her gifts and decorated the kitchen table so when she woke up in the morning she would know it was her special day, all day! She loved it when she woke up. We picked out a nice outfit for her to wear to school and a ribbon that we pinned to her that said "Birthday Girl". We let her open one of her presents in the morning as well. She picked a gift that Grandma had sent her and it ended up being clothes. I think she felt a little angry that she picked that one. She brought fruit snacks to share with everyone in her class. She got to pick where we went for supper and of course she picked - Chuckee Cheese. The place wasn't too busy and the kids had a lot of fun. We headed home after playing and eating pizza and picking out prizes. Katelynn opened the rest of her gifts up and we had some cupcakes and ice cream. She loved her presents she bought and I was "The best mom in the world" - at least for an hour! Next was to get ready for her birthday party the upcoming weekend.
