Party, Party, Party
Today was Emily’s 3rd birthday party. No, I don’t mean she is 3 now, she is five (!) now. I mean that today was the third celebration we have had for this event.
Last weekend we went to my brother’s birthday bash in Conway and she was included in the festivities. It was a blast and we all had a great time. Michelle Malone and her band played the party and rocked the house. Emily impressed many a guest with her gregariousness and her ability to rock out.
Monday (her actual birthday), at Emily’s request, we went to Miyabi’s Japanese Steakhouse and watched them start stuff on fire and cook our food in front of us. The highlight of the dinner was when this extremely red-headed little girl came over to Emily and started singing to her. She couldn’t have been more than 4 years old (she was tiny) but her singing was quite beautiful and very sweet.
Today was the party with her little friends. One in particular, Sarah, is almost Emily’s perfect match. She is younger than Emily (4) but she has same sort of odd times of seriousness. They both just pick weird points to become very serious about things. It’s cute, if a little disconcerting at times. They are very fond of each other and very smart and will probably worry me sick together. I can just imagine the mischief that those two can get into. Scary stuff.
My little girl is 5 years old. She starts school in 10 days. Holy Cow.
