Whew! This was a tough one for mom! What is it about five that seems so huge? Probably the beginning of "real school"? Leaving the toddler years well behind? No matter how hard I scrutinize her little face, I can't bring back all the baby fat or her tiny little voice that was just learning language. Now our "baby" is full of ideas, stories, hopes and dreams of her own. I couldn't be happier with the baby, turned toddler, turned little girl that we've raised so far. So rather than mourn how quickly time is passing, I'll roll around in our happy present.
Annie spent her fifth birthday at Santa's Village, where she rode all the rides until they closed the doors for the day. We took off after swim lessons, not telling her where she was going.
The following weekend we celebrated with friends and family, enjoying a perfect summer day.
Happy Birthday big sister!
