Did you know, in our home, when it's your birthday, you get to say ALL the prayers. Yup. That's right. The birthday person either get's to say them all or choose someone to say it. Today, Jo's excited to say every prayer.
Which isn't such a bad thing, just that she says the longest prayers. Ever. For a kid. Serioulsy they can be pertty extensive. Andif we try to convince her to end it, she argues back in silent mode. Which is so hilarious to experience. Being "yelled" at, while not a breath escapes her lips, during a prayer. And she get's this really angry look in her eyes, and her eyebrows pinch together. Seriosly.
Four years ago, I was like this:
And trust me, I have mixed feelings about which day was a better day. Birth Day or birthday. She is a silly, bossy, whiny, sweetheart that makes our home ten times more fun. We'd be incomplete without her.
So here's to way to many donuts {MAC!}, opening presents, baking a cake, playing with friends, and a family party tonight! What a great way to spend the day. {Sick or not. . . }
