Oh my sweet baby, I love you so much!
These are pictures from Friday, her actual birthday. This was the first year she anticipated her birthday. When she woke that morning, she rushed into the room, beckoning me to watch how much higher she could just now that she was FIVE! And checking to see how tall she was on her growth chart - she had really "shot up", as she says. Five is BIG!

~ seeing how fast she can run as a five year old ~
~ tired from all that running ~
~ posing in her extra twirly, Momma-made skirt ~
~ graduating to a big bike! ~
~ off she goes! ~
Friday is also our day for Waldorf co-op, so Lela got the extra treat of being able to spend the day with her friends.
~ a gift from dear friends Clover, Indigo, Willow and Nova - a crystal and smooth stone ~
~ Laurel and Nova sitting together - what is this World coming to! :) ~

And there was copious amounts of pizza, as Lela requested a dinner out at a local pizza place. Though there were also copious amounts of belly-aching that night and the next few days, Lela says it was worth it.

Pictures from Saturday, the birthday party and family visit, to come. (As soon as my sister/photographer Rebecca shares them with me.)
Peace,
Carrie
