Birthdays!

In a span of 17 days we celebrate 3 birthdays...


 
B#11 turned 1...I think he wants to share his cake with you:)


                                                 I think he preferred the gift bag to the gifts...

 
B#9 turned 4. She was so funny. It cracked her up that we were all singing to her. I honestly don't think she knew what to expect when we kept telling her it was her birthday. She is such a simple, happy little girl that I don't think it even registered with her that birthday equals presents.

 
We bought her a "Stuffie". If you aren't familiar with these, they are stuffed animals with lots of pockets. The mouth unzips, the tongue has a pocket, there is a pocket on the back and all of the feet have little pockets. She is kind of a hoarder, she loves to collect stuff and keep it in her bed so we thought this would be perfect for her. She also loves little animals so we bought her a few and wrapped them up to hide in the pockets.


                                                       I think she was happy with her gifts!


                                        She wanted a purple cake for her birthday so B#4 made her a yummy 4 layer
                                                    purple and pink cake with whipped cream frosting.


And last but not least, B#2 turned 22 on the same day as B#9. I don't have any pictures of her as she is still in MO. But I was so pleased that her host family's mother agreed to make her favorite birthday cake for her as a surprise from us. She always has white cake with Raspberry filling and whipped cream frosting. Tastes just like a Zinger! Yum! If you have never had a Zinger go to the store and buy some! We missed having her here for her birthday but we know that this is life with grown children. And we are so very thankful that she has a godly family who has taken her under their wing.
