Bella's 5th Birthday

Clarabella was looking very forward to her birthday.  My mom and dad were not planning to be at our place on her birthday but because their flight got canceled (for departure) and pushed back a couple of days, they rescedhuled to stay for a couple of extra days.  How happy we were to have them with us not only on Clarabella's birthday, but also Kohlie's birthday!

The morning of Clarabella's birthday, we sang "happy birthday" to her and then Treva said to her, "Now you are five!"  Bella said, "No!  After I have cake then I'm five!!"  It was funny, but she was looking very forward to her cake because it was quite a big deal to her that she was going to be five years old and be old enough to go to school!  Of course, then she asked if she could go to school and I had to break the news to her that she would not start until next year!!  The thought of that almost makes me cry!!  My baby girl going to start school...!
