she's 4!!!
my sweetie, with the sparkle in your eyes, is 4 today! i cannot believe that she's growing up this fast.
our tradition for birthdays is for the birthday child to select, bake & decorate her/his cake/cupcakes. this year kari has chosen chocolate cake with strawberry icing. not a bad combo! lol! she also decided upon (with the help of mommy) cupcakes instead of a cake.
she got several packages from family and enjoyed her day tremendously!!!
happy birthday baby!

dig your hands in the dirt....
...children play with earth.
dig your hands in the dirt
children play with earth.
there's just something about children and dirt
whether on purpose
or purely by accident
when little hands and feet make contact
magic happens
so...dig your hands in the dirt
children play with earth
dig your hands in the dirt
children play with earth
(lyrics in italics from Children Play with Earth by Arrested Development)
HAPPY EARTH DAY!!
Go put your hands in mother earth!!
Plant something
Clean up
Recycle
Reuse
Reduce
One of the books I'll be reading (again) to my kids is: Earth Mother by Ellen Jackson.
Enjoy the day!!
