Emily's 4th Birthday Journal
Our first and oldest grandgirl turned 4 on March 15th.
My gift to her was a pink container with snap side lid packed with her own baking things! She has loved to be with me in the kitchen since she was so small that she just rode on my hip while I did all the work.
As soon as she could grasp a spoon or whisk, she has helped and in four years has done more and more. She has added ingredients, mixed, emptied, filled, chopped, sprinkled, frosted, rolled, cut and on it goes.
She loved her small sized supplies and the second part of her gift was to use them the day after her party to make a birthday cake in Nandy's kitchen!
The photos are self describing so I'll stop here ;)
If I can figure out how to load the pictures and videos from my phone to the computer, I will add more content and share Emily and her brother, Caden making pumpkin squares last night!

From my drafts folder!
If I have already shared this, please forgive me the repeat!
I just wrote an entire post for here and it wouldn't sent (something about html tags not being accepted) and even after deleting everything I could think it would be --- it wouldn't post or save. I copied and pasted and planned to start over but copied something else in the process and lost the whole thing!
I'll just a share the basic content of the original post:
• Grandkids are growing up so fast! Emily Skye is our oldest grandlittle and she will be starting SCHOOL next year! Caden is going to be 3 in a few months --- unreal! Hailey Hope recently turned ONE! The baby grandbit is six months …he has already been here half of a year!
• Emily wanted me to help her make some paper flowers from a book her Uncle and Aunt got her. We made two darling flowers and her mother made one herself. Such a cute idea --- I am making a list of all the things I want to do with them!
• After flower making was over, we plopped down on the couch to watch a movie. MY DIH {Daughter-in-Heart…new one☺) and I realized we didn't have time so the kids watched Noggin and they pushed each other in order to have a place in Nandy's laps. I know it is plural. Emily must have figured two legs meant two laps bec she has called mine that since she was a small baby and could make out the word. Now, they are all calling it my "laps" … smiles.

Update: Caden will be three in less than a month! Hailey Hope is now 14 months and Elijah is 8 months this month!
