A wonderful quote

I went to a true woman's conference this past month and it was wonderful. I was reading over my notes from the conference and this was a quote from a breakout session with Holly Elliff on "Intentional Mothering."

"Treat your child as if you won't have them next year. Train your child as if they won't have you next year."

Abigail is 5 years old

My little Abigail has turned 5.


We had a Princess party. We had lots of fun with 8 little girls who attended. Abigail invited her classmates from preschool.


We played "Kiss the Frog" and made castles from sugar wafers and Travis performed an animated version of Cinderella with finger puppets.





One of Abigail's favorite gifts was a new comforter that she received from Aunt Brenda. She also got a scooter from her Ma Ma that she is learning to use.







For the party we had the girls go into a homemade castle. It was fun to make.



We shouldn't forget about the prince of the castle. He had a royal nap all through the party. He didn't wake up the whole time. He went to sleep right before the first guest and woke up after the last guest left. I couldn't believe it.
