Today we celebrated Lillian's 7th birthday at school. It was so nice to have Mrs. Blain invite us into the classroom after lunch. We brought cupcakes- purple ones! Of course, Justin Beiber's favorite color! Lillian also got to stand on her desk while her whole classroom sang Happy Birthday to her. She couldn't wait to stand on her desk, but she told me not to worry since Mrs. Blain would be holding her! :)
Lydia got to sit at a desk too. Lydia loved all the extra attention from the older kiddos. Then, Mrs. Blain asked if Lydia would like to stay to play a game of Four Corners. How sweet was that? Lydia and Lillian both loved it and we got to play two games.
Then, school had to start up again with lots of work. On Monday, the principal will announce her birthday during the morning announcements and Lillian will get a book. This birthday is going on FOREVER this year and she is getting spoiled rotten!
So, tomorrow Lillian officially turns 7 years old. The BIG day will FINALLY arrive in the household. Lillian is really growing up and amazes me everyday. She is so bright and beyond her years. I just keep telling her to enjoy being who you are at this age and don't worry about being any other age. She enjoys her friends, being in 1st Grade, loves her teacher, and still loves to dance. She joined Dance Team this year and started taking jazz classes on top of tap and ballet. She really is something else and I am thrilled I get to watch her grow up everyday! Mommy loves you Lillian and enjoy being 7 years old!
An Angel Left Her Wings
I have this little angel. For me she left her wings.
She has no idea how much happiness she truly brings.
She brightens up my days with her smiles and her laughs.
She helps me to remember all the blessings that I have.
Her face, it is so perfect, she's sweet and soft and pure.
Sometimes she can be willful and sometimes she is demure.
She tries her very hardest to please and do what's right.
She gives the greatest hugs from morning until night.
Every person that has known her sees this light within her soul
I know that in this whole great world, she has a special role.
She's helpful and considerate to everyone she knows
This light in her shines brighter as my angel grows.
When she sees someone is sad, it opens up her heart.
She wants to do all that she can; she wants to do her part.
She'll squeeze away the sorrow and make me forget about my pain.
She shows me where the sun is when we're hiding from the rain.
I know that God must love me, He showed me with His Grace
I knew just how completely when I saw my angel's face.
And in that very moment when she came into my world,
I knew that she was so much more than just my baby girl.
She would be my sunshine, with a sweetness that won't end.
And when she grows up one day she would be my closest friend.
She would be the reason I would always try my best.
For my little angel baby girl would be my greatest test.
When God entrusts to you an angel, who has left her wings for you.
Encircle her with love with everything you do.
Let her know God made her, and that He trusts you with her care.
Be sure to make time for special moments with her to share.
And when at night she finally says her prayers and goes to sleep
I Thank Him for my angel, and ask for him to always keep
A watchful eye and hand to protect her from this world.
Protect my little angel; protect my baby girl.
Love you all!
Julie
