F O U R

In just over three weeks my little girl will be 4.  Yes, F O U R.  Four Years Old! 

I am really excited about this birthday mostly because she is really excited.  She finally understands birthdays and growing older.  She realizes that she is turning four and wants to have friends at her party.  When I asked her what she wanted for her birthday she replied, "Four girls.  Mommy make the biggest cake in the whole wide world.  Pink and purple presents.  Balloons."  OK.  So that is a party according to Mackenzie.  I hope she is not too disappointed that we are going to have a park party with a lot of family, and probably four girls, and some boys too.  I also hope she doesn't mind that I am not making the biggest cake ever!  I am going to try to make the personal Oreo cheesecakes and maybe some cake pops!  Both of which I can make without artificial food color, and have actually found all natural sprinkles in chocolate, pink and yellow!  As for everything else...who knows???  I suppose we will just celebrate!
