Abby has always been my most unique kiddo. There was more than an entire year of her life when she would not answer to any name other than Minnie Mouse. It wasn't worth it to convince her that she was being crazy, and yes, she was old enough to know better. She finds something that she loves and gives her whole heart and soul to it. She is so special.
For Abby's birthday this year she chose to take the whole family bowling and then out to dinner. She didn't want a party, just family time. I will admit, I am pretty excited that she chose us. She didn't ask if a friend could come, she didn't ask for a present, just time with us. I am so proud to be her mommy.
As a surprise, I switched snack days for basket ball so that I could bring cupcakes for her team. When I told her this evening how lucky she was that her actual birthday landed on her basketball day, she was thrilled!
Of course her request was pink cupcakes with pink frosting. How could I say no to that? Who am I kidding? I would NEVER say no to that!
Our evening was spent whipping up some pink vanilla cupcakes with pink buttercream frosting, while Abby watched my every move and danced around with delight. Before I could frost them for her it was bed time, and I explained that she will have to wait until morning to see them. She was a little disappointed until I snuck into her room with a little piece of frosted cake for her.
