Mac has been very patient this year, with all the hubbub of Mimi's 8th birthday, and the celebrations aren't over yet! She was so sweet and agreed to do her friend birthday party in March so we could get past the birthdays and baptism. Today, though, is HER day!!
Her gifts were wrapped with pink and balloons, ready for her when she woke up.
Grandma and Grandpa G sent her a really cool origami kit, which she was really excited about opening up and trying out.
She was happy with her other gifts, too. I'm glad they like Legos!
We got special breakfast in before church. Easier, in fact, than on a school morning!
Leiden hasn't been feeling well, though, so Jon did a nasal swab on her to see what she's got. We've got dinner at Grandmere's tonight and Aunt Susan will be there, and we have to be careful.
Birthdays on Sundays aren't always as exciting as other days, but we headed to church, where Mimi gave a talk!
Later this evening, both Mac and Mimi were celebrated at family dinner. We put all the candles on one cake, and sang to them both, and they both blew them out!
Jon and I were jointly in charge of cutting the cake, and it was a fun celebration for the birthday girls. Again, Mac was very gracious in sharing her actual birthday at the family dinner. She's really learning (in spurts!) how to be kind.
Happy Birthday, sweet Mac! We love you so much!
