My sweet, brown eyed baby girl turned 4. This is very hard for me! Waaaaaaaaa. Ok. I'm over it. It is bittersweet. My girls are growing up and turning into such amazing little people. I guess that means we as their parents, are doing a somewhat good job. At the same time, I miss being needed 100%. I am their mommy. Forever and ever. Being their mom is who I am. It defines me. I love everything about it. Even the stressful, hair pulling days. When they are gone, I wander around like a lost puppy. I have one more year before all 3 girls are completely in school full time, every day all day. Riley and I are going to make the most of her last year of preschool. Lots of mommy and Riley time.
Riley got to kick off her 4th birthday with opening lots of presents...
Her Nana and Papa came to town for her special day!
And the birthday girl got to go to the Build A Bear Workshop for the very first time!
Then took a little ride and stopped for a cookie...or 2.
We finished off the day with the Birthday girl requesting a special dinner at McDonald's and finishing it off with a nice big piece of cake! Happy Birthday to my beautiful, sweet Riley girl.
