waking up to annie's "happybirdaytate!" over and over and over.sprinkles on her waffles.
a new dress....with ruffly sleeves.
five pennies in the fountain for five birthday wishes.
cupcakes to school....and first in line to walk down....and a crown to wear.
another gorgeous fall day.
romping in our favorite park after school with best buds felix and ada.
running down the huge hill with her sisters.
noodles for dinner.....with daddy.
brownies and candles and ice cream and the perfect presents.
she told me, over and over, that it was the best day ever.
oh, it's good to be five.
