Her 1st birthday party

came and went.

The weather was perfect, a high of 78 with a slight breeze. 

Her Majesty was an angel, albeit an angel with a fever.

I still can't believe she got sick the day of her party.

She handled it so well, though. Such the little lady.

There was a big beautiful cake and a little "smash" cake made just for her to do just that.

It was fun watching her eat it.

She received lots of presents from those that love her and the baby doll that Mommy and Daddy got her is her favorite. 

She kisses and hugs her. Such a sweetie.

We gathered up all the balloons and took her outside to make a wish with them.

She released the balloons into the sky, smiled, and waved bye bye to them.

Then the day was over and I nursed her to bed.

It was a fun day and...

Now she is one day away from turning one year old.

I am prepared for it. 

(I think)

(I hope)

There will be no tears on her birthday. 

No there will not.
