Seven

Sweet Malan, you were so excited for this birthday.
You counted the days, you prepared the menus: strudel for breakfast in bed, crepes with berries and creme for dinner.
 You wanted a "nature cake" and you took your birthday wish oh so seriously.
All my wishes are for all your wishes to come true.

We had fun today bandaging your and Jane's dolls, who must have been through something horrible, with your new doll first aid kit:

Malan: "Oh no! What happened to you?"
Jane: "I broke my arm and my finger and got lots of cuts on my face.
What happened to you?"
Malan: "I broke my leg and sprained my ankle and got lots of cuts on my arms and legs.
I need an ice pack. Oh look, here's one. Do you want to borrow my crutches?"
Jane: "No, thanks. You're the one with the broken legs."


Sure love you, sweet, thoughtful, bright, creative, beautiful Malan.
Happy Birthday.

Happy Birthday, Malan!
Kate,are you going to share your recipe for strudel? I'm intrigued.
And where do you get such a thing as a "doll first aid kit"? Is this a doctor's kid kind of thing?
Nice nature cake. Nice pictures. Nice people.
