…but I still need to blog about September birthdays. Life keeps getting in the way of blogging, but I want to reflect on our milestones and memories through this blog. Better late than never is my motto.
Emily’s birthday was first in September. She turned four this year.
She requested a fairy birthday party, so we ate fairy cupcakes, set up a fairy scavenger hunt for little treasures, and celebrated fairy style!
I can hardly believe Emily is four already. Shouldn’t she still be in a crib, wearing diapers and onesies? She’s still our tow-headed baby girl, no matter how old she turns or how much she objects (“I’m not your baby!”).
Then Luke and I celebrated our birthdays. We both turned… well, another year older. :)
To round out the month of September, we celebrated Luke’s mom’s 60th birthday. We enjoyed a meal together in a reserved room at Islamorada Fish Company Restaurant (attached to Bass Pro Shop) while watching the fish swim in the fish tank adjoining our room.
Luke and his brothers made her a scrapbook of memories from family vacations they took through the years.
A month of celebrations! I think birthdays are wonderful because they provide an opportunity to reflect on the blessings of life.
“Let them praise the name of the Lord, for at his command they were created ...” Psalm 148:5
