Grandma was lucky enough to have to go to a conference close to where the birthday girl lives. Here she is with Mom, Dad, and little sister, out having a birthday dinner. Grandma was taking the picture. Baby sister was not too excited by the event.
Our three-year-old was quite surprised and pleased when the servers gathered to sing and clap for her, to take her picture, and to present her with a hat, cake with a candle, and a balloon.
When we got home, she had new p.j.s to put on before opening lots of presents Grandma had brought from everyone who wasn't lucky enough to get to make the trip!
There were puzzles, books, clothes, games, and...
a doctor kit. She loved to hear the stethoscope go "thump, thump". (Does she look a little tired? It had been a long day, going to school, then waiting for Grandma to get there).
When she woke up, little sister watched everything from the comfort of her vibrating seat. She's looking forward to when she can have cake and ice cream too. We could tell she was happy for her sister from all the smiles she gave us.
It was a happy third birthday for a special girl. She'll get to celebrate again on the weekend when some of her cousins arrive. Thanks for letting Interprovincial Grandma share in your day.
