::sweet birdie turning 6::

my little birdie turns 6 in less than 2 days and i can hardly believe how quickly my sweet one is growing up.  

my heart aches that she is getting so close to 10, but i am so proud of the sweet girl she is.

and the weekend was absolutely full of joy as whit came to visit and helped us celebrate with a bird themed party (per lily's request) and ring in her 6th year with about 20 of her closest friends and classmates!

bird seed ornaments for favors.

crafts!

thank you SO much for coming, whit!  we could not have done it without you!  it was a perfect weekend with you by our side!

i am going to soak up the last hours with my 5 year old and ring in her 6th year with so much joy and thankfulness.

oh, we adore you, sweet birdie of ours!
