Millie's Birthday has come and gone! She had such a fun day. She got to be spotlighted at preschool, and she got to bring a treat to share with everyone. At night, we had Abby's family and Sister Lindsey over for FHE and birthday cake.
Last year, she was oblivious to birthday presents, but this year, that was the most important thing! Right when she woke up, she wanted to open her presents. I decided to give her one or two, but after each one, she asked for another. Once she had opened them all, she said, "no, I want to open another one! Just go find another gift for me." So I asked what it would be. She said, "lipstick." So, with that clue, I quickly rummaged up some old lipstick. When she opened it, she quickly said, "yes!" I learned my lesson to ask her beforehand what she would like!
