Edie Grace’s 7th birthday party week has been a blast!  We kicked it off last Saturday with a family party, went to Savannah on her actual birthday on Wednesday, and ended it with a party of friends.  (for the first time we let HER create the guest list)  The friend party was held at “Mommies’ Mommies”(my mom’s) house here in Statesboro.  Her guest list included friends from just about all of her life experiences to date:  daycare to dance…family life center to Pinewood to church — she invited a few from each it seems.

Her party included swimming, fingernail and toenail painting, limbo, banana split making, playhouse playing and swinging and bouncing on the play set the Easter Bunny dropped off in March.

We have had a great week.  On Wednesday, she picked out her new “big girl” bike that she can ride without training wheels.  Of course, she picked the High School Musical with a picture of Troy Bolton on it.  I think all of our parents are trying to make up for all the things they were not able to do for us.  It is tuff to keep Edie Grace grounded in reality.  Thank goodness birthday’s come only once per year!
