Cherub 5 turned 8yo today !! HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHERUB 5 !!!
We took a holiday from school today in honor of this special day ... and we had homemade whole-wheat Belgian Waffles for Brunch ... and are having Cream of Beef and Brocolli soup for dinner with garlic bread. This was the exact day Cherub 5 had planned, except for the bitter cold temperatures (44 with a windchill feeling like 38 - YIKES !). "Oh well," she said "that just means I get to finally wear the sparkly butterfly hat and my purple coat !" The day was saved ....
For her birthday, Cherub 5 asked for a new doll. Well, here "she" is - she is a Madame Alexander doll and is lovely, right down to the pink streaks in her hair and funky boots. Cherub 5 is VERY excited with her gift !!
In this photo the girls were just preparing to go on a walk-about on the farm so that the doll could have a tour of her new home. Perhaps they will come up with a good name for this lovely doll --- choosing names and such decisions take quite a bit of time for Cherub 5 because she has to pick the PERFECT one, of course.
Cherub 5 also received a giftcard to Toys R Us and a little money, so she is planning a shopping trip VERY soon ...
UPDATE: The doll has a name !!
Her name is Maddie Kate (Maddie for short).
