One, Two Birthdays...
Though neither Tiffany, nor Caitlin wished to have babies in December, God chose for both of our grandgirls to be born then, one year and one day apart. Maybe that was for me -- because I LOVE DECEMBER, and having two little sweets celebrate birthdays only adds to the fun! I mean, the whole world is decorated for your celebration, and everyone is itching to do happy, fun stuff, so what can be bad about that?!
Spoken as one whose birthday is in May...I know: too much of a good thing, nothing the rest of the year, etc. But God decided, so I say let's make the most of it! :)
And Emma's and Kit's mommas did just that.
Emma's birthday came first, but her party waited until Grandma Pat & Grandpa Gordon were in town. On the actual day, she came to this Grandma's house for breakfast. I'm glad we made this list of fun things to do on her birthday! In the days leading up to her birthday, her parents coached her on stating her new age. It became a very serious event to her, as she would solemnly state, "Gonna be two..."
Meanwhile, Kit was learning to point her little index finger high when asked, "How old is Kit?"
Oh my heart!
We had a lovely little cake and ice cream party at Jon & Cait's house for Kit's birthday. Fun presents, fun cousins and Kit loved the cake!
Then Saturday, we celebrated with Emma's cousins, and presents, and she loved her chocolate cake!
We are so thankful for these two darling girls! Emma and her spunk, storytelling and zest for life. Kit and her sweetly lisping gibberish, and her determined, quiet problem solving play. They are amazing! And they love us, especially Grandpa, which is so sweet to see. Their parents are doing such a good job, loving and leading them.
Indeed, they deserve the best of celebrations because they are the best blessing we enjoy here on this earth!
Happy Birthdays, precious Emma and Kit!!

Kit loved her Angus night light...It looks exactly like her good buddy!
And when you're done with cake, you can still suck frosting off your thumb!

The TWO tutu!
Grandma Pat brought pretties from Hawaii!
She ate the whole piece of chocolate cake, and no wasting it on her face!
