Last weekend (and yesterday) we celebrated our daughter turning 23! I never pictured being a mama with children past the age of 8 or maybe 9. So 23 is well past 8 or 9. But it's still wonderful, especially when we get to celebrate who our darling daughter is and is becoming!
We had a 'grandparent' party at our home last Sunday evening. I prepared all day Sunday (my favorite thing!)
I baked the cake starting Sunday right after we got home from church but it couldn't be assembled until just before we cut it. So my Mom helped me assemble it all.
Nothing makes me happier than to bake homemade birthday cakes to celebrate my daughters... what a privilege!
There was a lot of time for talking and just being together (even though there are only 2 weeks left and my mind was swirling)
The sun was beginning to set and my girls ran out so I could snap this one... love!
On Anna's actual birthday (yesterday) after we came home from school we all went to one of her favorite restaurants and then had more cake and presents after. Simple but sweet.
Happy birthday darling daughter. You are loved, treasured, and adored!
