Happy Birthday, Princess Jellybean!

Today is Vienne's 4th birthday.  This morning I went into her room and she said, "Is today my birthday?"  I said, "Yep, you're four today!  Do you feel four?"  She said, "Yea!"  After a moment she says, "Let me look in the mirror to see how big I am."  I say, "OK, go see."  She gets to the mirror and says in a slightly discouraged tone, "I don't look bigger."  And she's a little confused as to why there is no party today.  We're celebrating next Saturday.  But we'll make it a fun day. 

She's says she'll stay my baby forever.  I really hope so. 

Singing in the Rain

Can you see it?  Our house in the rain drop. 

 

Last year at this time we had had enough rain.  This year, not enough.  We got about 3 hours of much needed rain today.  And we couldn't stay in and let it happen.  We went out to play in it.
