Ella’s birthday this year was different. Because of COVID we just invite our close family and we held the event outside. Thank goodness the evening was one of the midler June nights that we had in Georgia this year. We had a great time celebrating our littlest little princess.

I feel like kid obsessions change within a blink of an eye. As of today, Ella is obsessed with kitty cats, Bubble Guppies, and the color pink. In June she was really into teddy bears, so of course we had to have a Teddy Bear Picnic.

She was much more into eating the cake (read: icing) this year and opening her presents. At times like these I am reminded how quickly time passes. Just like Gretchen Rubin says, “the days are long but the years are short.” Amen sister, amen.
