Bella's 6th Birthday

Bella celebrated her 6th birthday at home with a "Girls Barbie Party". It was wonderful to see her spend her big day with a few of her friends she's known since she was a baby, some friends from preschool and some news friends from kindergarten at Hawthorne. They drank punch from tea cups, giggled, ate Barbie cake, watched Barbie fashion movie, decorated purses then entertained us with fashion shows in her room. It was priceless to watch how well they all got along & enjoyed the same silly things! She then got to bring a cake to school on the actual day Nov. 30th and celebrate with her class. She loved wearing a crown and the badge they gave her. Although she insists she still feels five, it was as if she matured over night to me. She loved all the gifts, but mostly being with the people so dear to her. She continues to be my social butterfly & doesn't mind being the "Bella of the Ball". As I watch her grow up each year she inspires me with the person she is becoming. Like her singing teacher Jare once said to me, "Everything is so BIG to Bella". It is my wish that she stays exactly as she is now, confident in what she wants,excited about life, learning and every new experience. If her friends at her party were an example of who she surrounds herself in life, she'll grow up one happy girl. I will never forget the 8 little girls holding hands singing ring around the rosy all dressed up like the little princesses they are.
