Improvise

Planned:  A fun filled birthday party for Rissie at the park pavilion where the kids can enjoy the playground and run off some steam.  

Weather:  Cold and windy.  

Improvise. Inside party.























Dear Diary,

I'm feeling a little better...  but shhh, I can't let mom know.  She's my slave woman 
 when I'm sick and I've gotten kinda used to it.  


I think I feel the need for a treat now...  But first.  The sad look.  The pity.  The hug around the neck. The belly rub.  The 'poor gracie'.  


I hear the fridge door close...  and I think I smell chickie bird...  catch ya later.  Gracie.

  11. Bobbi,
    I'm glad Gracie is beginning to feel better...not fun to be sick with spring in the air!
    Your grand-daughter is absolutely precious! I love her new pink hat and the little boy watching her open presents; he's being so patient. It's so hard for a kid to watch that and not have anything to open...

  14. I do believe Marissa likes hot pink just a little!!! She is beautiful and I can tell you all love her bunches and bunches.
    So glad Gracie is feeling better - - - even if she's keeping it a secret from the family.
