She's 14 Years Old...



Just a small, family celebration for Maddie's 14th birthday - Dinner at Red Robin with friend Monica and her Mom, Elizabeth (with the embarrassing birthday ditty sung by the wait staff) then back home to blow out a candle on a cupcake. Maddie received a birthday call from her grandparents early this morning (in fact, they had to call back because her 'Royal Highness' was still asleep!); another from cousins Kate & Jack; and another from Aunt Claudine.







As always, both sets of grandparents were way too generous with their gifts, as were Maddie's Aunts & Uncles. Dr. Nick and Mrs. Barbara, our next door neighbors in Reading were even kind enough to send along a gift for her and Josie. I hope she realizes just how truly blessed she is to be so loved.

I didn't go into a recitation of the 15 hours of labor I endured to bring her into this world - which was a huge relief to everyone. (hee-hee!) I did let her know that she has become more beautiful every day since then... (she looked like Yoda when she was born - no lie!!)
