An Alice In Wonderland Birthday for my sweet Lillian


This morning was my Lilli bugs 4th birthday party.

oh my gosh my daughter is 4!!!

We had fun in the bounce house (lent to us by a friend- thank you friend :) ), eating, playing, talking...
It dawned on me yesterday.... Every year when I plan the kids birthdays I start to stress. Not only do I stress, I start the stressing 6 months in advance.

How silly is that??

I was reminded yesterday how utterly thankful I am for my babies, as well as my hubby. God has given them to me as precious gifts.

SO I decided that instead of stressing I would be completely thankful for the gift of being able to throw our first baby girl a Birthday. If you know us well then you know that finances have been a struggle lately and so being able to throw this Birthday was a huge deal for us. It was great to see everyone and to celebrate our very sassy Lilli. Even better since I let go of the crazed "everything has to be perfect" mentality. Thank you so much to my hubby who has carried all the burden of our finances and for working so hard so that we could do this!!
