Five and a half...

We had a BIG celebration yesterday. Miss A knew June 4th was approaching and started making plans days ahead. She advised me to go to bed early the night before as I had a big day ahead: getting the house ready for her celebration, making waffles with raspberries and whipped cream, hanging streamers, playing games, singing to her, etc. Plus, with the big storm rolling in, we had LOTS to celebrate...


So here's the five and a half year old herself, holding the bunch of irises that grow up along the back of the sandbox, all of which fell over yesterday in the rain...
They're the most beautiful irises I have. Soft purple, smell like rain, amazing...
But not as amazing as the girl in purple holding them...
And here are the waffle fiends...
