Tomorrow I will be back with pictures of the wonderful day that was Grace's fourteenth birthday today but for tonight I shall leave you with this one that perfectly captures the magic of the day! From start to finish this day was so compltely Grace. It was full of all the things and people she loves best! Birthdays in our family are a really big deal. They aren't big in the sense that we have grand birthday parties but they are big in the sense that we spend the day celebrating the birthday person in all the ways they love best. And this year, even with a pandemic in full swing, was no exception! If truth be known, I think the pandemic somehow made this day even more magical. Everything about this day was so very Grace. From the cake she chose to the cards her friends sent (via mail!) to celebrating at home (in the backyard and on Zoom) to people stopping by with gifts and calling and texting and posting on Facebook and Instagram and all the birthday wishes at dance (yes, she's wearing a leo in this picture has she had just gotten home from dance) truly made this day one of the best! Honestly, the only way this day could have been any more perfect would have been if we had made it to the farm to go blueberry picking (as is our tradition) but alas there was just so much goodness going on that we could not fit that one in too! Thank you to everyone who made this day so completely wonderful for her. It truly is one that she will never forget! xo
