Scarlett's 5th Birthday

WHAT?!  I can't believe my baby girl turned five on April 14th!  She opted for a family dinner at TGIFridays.  Her first choice was to go to China?!?!  One of her classmates is from China and I think that's where that idea came from.  Anyway, Miss. Scarlett had a heck of a birthday!  

The night before and after the girls went to bed, Jeremiah and I used our ninja skills to hang balloons and streamers from her bedroom ceiling.  When she woke up, she loved it and was so happy.  The day took off from there.  Here's a peek at her festivities!

First, she had a class party at school.  Jeremiah even made a cameo appearance.


Then, we had dinner at TGI Friday's!  The staff sang to her and she had the biggest bowl of ice cream ever!


Finally, we had her after party at home with more cake and presents!  Savannah was feeling left out by not opening any presents.  Realizing what was going on, Scarlett voluntarily told her that she could open one of her birthday gifts.  How sweet was that?!  I love this kid!  Anyway, Scarlett made out like a bandit this year.


I love Scarlett for so many reasons!  She loves to bring me flowers...from the backyard...or a rose from the rose bush...or a dandelion when we're at the park.  She loves going to school, story time at the library, the park, and church.  She and Savannah still fight over who will say the prayer for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and before going to bed.  She loves to pose when I take her picture.  I love her hair, giggle, smile and just everything about her.  I love that she is so lovable and so giving.  Well, most of the time.  I also love that she loves her sisters dearly.  I love when she says to me "oh, may I help?!"  Or, "I want to help!"  One of my favorite things?  When she says "I love you" or "thank you" emphatically.  Anyway, we sure love this little girl of ours.  Happy 5th birthday, sweetheart!!!
