And she said, “Let them eat cake”
The title just sort of came to me to go with the picture for today. Today we had a dual birthday party for my sister and I… she’s turning 23 and me 32 (what a fun play with numbers). My birthday was May 2, and her birthday is May 7, so pretty much since she was born we’ve had a dual birthday party.
Maylie was so excited to give me her birthday present, and it was wrapped very carefully in Kleenex and tape, and decorated with marker.
