23 AUGUST 2007
Today is the day my little, princess turns 4. She has been reminding everyone daily since she heard us slip up again and mention it. I’m very proud of the human being I’ve created. Annie is making so much progress in her kid skills, education, and sense of humor (a must in this household). I will post pictures after her birthday “party” tonight. It will only be the four of us, but we’ll party just the same. All day today Annie has been carrying around a pink, gift bag that she found in a closet. In it is an assortment of objects that she’s going to use to decorate her party and bake her cake. The bag has accompanied us everywhere including Office Depot.
Not one to leave anyone out, I’ll mention Mimi as well. Her little personality is so cute. She’s adopted the crossed-dressed crocodile as her baby. Mimi shows no prejudice in her love for others. Various letters from the alphabet are finally starting to inhabit her memory. Now instead of every letter being “E”, “H” is also making appearances. But seriously, Mimi does seem to be making lots of progress in this area. Oh, she also did something that I thought was cute. She brought over her empty snack baggy and proclaimed with much glee, “Mommy, I ate my snack all gone!” I don’t know why I thought this was so adorable, but I immediately picked her up gave her big hugs and kisses. Of course, Mimi was up for it, too:~)
