Last week we celebrated Sam's birthday. We drove up to Conroe in order to see Lyndsey before she started her student teaching and to share Sam's celebration. Good times had by all! Sam had requested ice cream cone cupcakes and ice cream (although I knew that all she really wanted was ice cream- that girl LOVES her ice cream!).
I made her an apron for her Birthday which she was thrilled about.
Then later that week I bought her a smoothie at the gym. Which seriously made her day. You see she asks DAILY as we walk by the gym cafe if we can get something there, but I always say no. One day I decided instead of saying no that I would tell her for her birthday she could get something (probably 6-7 months ago) hoping to divert her focus. It worked- mostly. Then sure enough the Tuesday after her birthday we walk right by the cafe and she chimes right up, "Mom it was my birthday! Can I get something today?" So she got her ever coveted smoothie and even got the #4 on her order number (completely coincidental!).
