Time Keeps Rolling Along....

Grandma got off lucky this year. I didn't have to make
cupcakes or a cake. Mom made these delicious
chocolate cupcakes that disppeared quickly :)

And rolling, and rolling :)  Today our little granddaughter Hannah turned six years old! Yes, six years old.  Normally this wouldn't seem like a big deal for most people, but having spent the first 18 months of her life in hospitals having test after test, surgery after surgery for some bladder/kidney problems, seeing this little one turn 6 seemed to mark a milestone. Like we've been able to leave her "babyhood" behind and enjoy what's to come.

HAPPY  6th  BIRTHDAY  HANNAH!
WE  LOVE  YOU!
  

I doubt Hannah will have any idea of how grandma is feeling today. I'm not even sure if anyone else in the family feels this way, but I do :)  It's difficult to explain....but all I know is it feels very good to see a healthy, happy little girl enjoying her big day with so many friends and family around to help enjoy it with her.

We all went to see The Lorax at the movies, then had a party there with pizza, chicken nuggets, hotdogs, cupcakes, a DQ ice cream cake (which Hannah just loves) and presents....lots and lots of presents.

It was a wonderful day seeing our 'baby girl' take this happy step in her short life. This grandma can sleep well tonight knowing Hannah had a wonderful day, and hopefully a wonderful night....mom and dad have a total of 5 girls sleeping over tonight....hehehe!

Happy Birthday my little Pixie!
Grandma loves you
