Abby needed no encouragement to blow out candles or open presents this year! Ever since Ryan's birthday in February, she has been very excited about her third birthday. In fact, we received some birthday presents weeks ago, and she managed to get into my closet and open one of them while I was in the shower! At last her big day has arrived, and when I asked her what she wanted me to fix for her special dinner she immediately said, "McDonald's!" She doesn't even like the food there. I have to force her to eat every time we go, but she loves to play on the play structure. Since it was just our family celebrating this year, we decided to indulge her and go to Mickey D's.
After playing there, we came home, unwrapped presents, and had purple cake and ice cream. She loves her new rain boots from Granpa Fraser and her Curious George book from Cousins Hannah and Rachel. But I think her favorite gift is a stuffed purring kitty from Nonna.
She has grown up so much in the last year. She's growing out of toddlerhood and into a lovely little girl. Each year she continues to grow more affectionate, and she amazes us with her God-given desire to bring comfort to those who are hurting. We are so blessed to have her in our family!
