Madison is officially ten! I can hardly believe it. I found myself thinking "man that is half way to 20." I know that this is crazy to think of but it's true. She truly had a great week at craft camp and sweet, sweet Mary had all the kids call her princess Madison today because it was her birthday. NOTE TO MARY: you didn't know it at the time, and may not know it now but you really made her whole day. I was telling my friend Julia about it over the phone and when she came over later she
called Madison Princess Maddy. Her whole face lit up and she said, "Miss Julia, everyone has been calling me that all day!" Score one for Julia! We had a great day actually. Madison could have had anything she wanted for dinner, and all she chose was pizza, salad ("so you can eat too mommy") and all of us at the dinner together. Those of you who know the job, know that this doesn't happen that often as Michael doesn't know what time he will be home some nights. He did come through tonight. We all sat for dinner and then the kids got a sneak preview of the cupcakes for tomorrow. The family sang happy birthday to her and then we had a family movie night. We let her open two of her presents from us tonight as well. I know it's not very exciting, but it's a day that makes me smile because it made my baby smile--as evidenced by the final picture with her smile.

Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your beautiful girl from me and my fam bam! Hope the rest of your weekend is great as well. We leave for Germany at 5:25 tomorrow morning, so hopefully I'll see you soon!
Ahhhh, I'm so happy to know that I made her happy. You really have two beautiful and wonderful girls!
Sasha,
I just read your blog, and I am so glad you made it home safe. Mary...thank you for taking such good care of my girls last week, for making craft camp fun, for making friday special, and for making both the girls have so much fun. I am glad they were good for you and that you think they are wonderful. I do to, but I am biased
