Dear Lia,

Happy 8th Birthday! Your Daddy and I can hardly believe you're eight. We love reminding you of how little you used to be, how fat and sungit, and and, little. You are definitely not little anymore. You are turning out to be quite the young lady. And we are very very proud of you.

Dear Desi,

I had to show you a calendar to see how many days it was till your birthday. I pointed out that first, you will have your Moving Up Day, and then there's ( Read more... )

Dear Lia,

Happy Birthday 6 years old! You turned 6 yesterday and you've been waiting for that day since... well, since your 5th birthday! You love birthdays, especially your own. I don't think it's the gifts that make you look forward to your birthdays. I think it's your parties. Because you spend the whole year thinking of what theme you will have ( Read more... )
