Birthday Surprise!

Sadie turned fourteen this past week! The best part of her birthday was "the whole thing."

Her friends at school gave her some nice birthday wishes.

Her friend Emily W. came over just before school let out and decorated her room. Then she hid in Sadie's closet, until she was found. It was fun for them both. Sadie was reminded of how wonderful it is to have good friends.










When I asked her what kind of cake she wanted, she said "anything but chocolate." So, I made her a french vanilla cake with vanilla frosting and served it with strawberry ice cream.





For dinner she requested that we have tostadas. After dinner and cake she opened her presents. I made her a really big roll pillow with her name on it. She also got some treats and make up. Since her birthday, she has begun wearing mascara. Trevon looked at her and told her she looked really good. Hearing that from her older brother has encouraged her to continue wearing it.



She was very thankful for the phone calls, cards and gifts she received. Sadie is a very special part of our lives and we love her very much!
