In the Light of Eternity

Licking up batter from her home made birthday cake.

Last year Kailee celebrated her 11th birthday in China (dancing up a storm with Mema and Grandpa at the Thai resturaunt)...this year we are blessed to be able to spend it with them again here in MN (she wonders where she will celebrate next year). It was a strange day as Jordan and Madalyn flew home to TX yesterday since they had a break from school so it was just Hudson and I here along with Grandpa and Mema. The day started with Mema making Kailee chocolate chip pancakes and then on to making her b'day cake.

After lunch we headed out to get pedicures (check out picture below). Hudson couldn't understand why he wasn't getting one also so Kailee gave him a foot message when we came home. Yesterday kailee and I spent the day together shopping and out for dinner together once we saw the other two off to TX. It is so fun to be able to do "big girl" things together and yet sad as she is growing up.

She has been a trooper with our transition here. She is a sports girl and had to give up cheerleading and gymnastics. Today her friends called and were headed to a track meet but she knows she will get to do all those things again next year. Kailee has always been our "go with the flow girl".....pretty content to do whatever is happening at the moment. We are blessed by her sweet disposition, intense drive to be the best at whatever the task is at hand, a good friend to those here and in TX and an awesome big sister to Hudson.

We love you lit'bit..........Happy Birthday!!!!!
