(5.7.20)

It was just a party for us four and I felt so bad that Lila couldn’t invite the rest of her family and friends and have a party like her sister got in January. I wanted to make sure she felt special still so I decorated with her theme of choice just like I would have if we were able to have the party she wanted. They awoke to a scavenger hunt to find their costumes for the day, decorated crowns and cupcakes, played with new toys, had a porch visit from her bestie and had family and friends sing her Happy Birthday over zoom. At the end of the night as I was putting her to sleep, she said she had the best day ever. I’m glad we were able to make her day special.

She brings the sunshine into any room. She’s the goofiest, silliest, sweetest girl who can always make us smile. We love her adventurous spirit, kind soul and determination. She loves all things frozen, twirly dresses, princesses, dancing and singing, but she also loves going on “adventure walks”, making art, reading books, playing games and running around outside. We love her so much and are so lucky to have her in our family. I took her out around our neighborhood to take her pictures. She was hesitant to let me take her pictures, but happily joined me on a walk with a camera for her. We pretended to take pictures of what we saw while I snuck some in of her.
