Today Was Mae's Day

Three Princesses

Today we celebrated Mae's Birthday all afternoon. Uncle Buster, Sharon and cousin Jake came up from NH to join our first party of the afternoon. We booked space at a Bouncy House facility for Mae and her classmates. It was great seeing pigtails fly, big smiles and Mae play with her friends. I was thrilled when a couple who share a close connection with Mae showed up unexpectedly.

Our next celebration was with Mae's grown-up friends. Uncle Buster, Sharon and Jake made the transition smooth. I'm not used to having so many helping hands. Most everyone at Mae's birthday dinner party had been part of her baby welcoming ceremony. Dave observed that by the end of the evening she made a deliberate connection with everyone here.

Today was Mae's day.
