In Preparation...

Goosie will be turning 5 in a little over a month. It is VERY hard to believe that our little girl is growing so quickly. Little by little... the preparations have been made for the big birthday event.
You see... we made a pact that we would only celebrate the following birthday with big parties:
ages 1, 5, 10, 16, and 21.
I have to be honest... it's hard to stick to that pact. Well... it is for me. Growing up in a family with a catering business means I really don't know how to do it "small." This time, I am handing over all the cooking to someone else. It will take place at a tea house and I get to do all the fun stuff for the "Mommy and Me Cupcake Tea."
That's right... a tea for the Mommies and their little girls (of course, we are sneaking in Daddy, Pop Pop and Boomer).
I remember the day she was born... an ice storm... and the memories of going over the Wilson Bridge in DC praying she wouldn't make an appearance during rush hour!
I am very honored to be her Mommy... I hope it takes a long time to get to the point where I am preparing for her 10th birthday party!
