Today was Brickelle’s birthday party. She had it at a sweet ballet studio in Noe Valley. Brickelle invited all of the girls in her class and Ella. Ella had a blast at the party. Of course she loved it because it was Brickelle’s party, but she really had fun with the other kids and she loved doing ballet! You’ll see from the pictures that she pretty much smiled for the whole party. Tonight we had dinner with Amy and Jenny. Ella got 2 fantastic birthday/Chanukah gifts from them. The first one was a Hannah Montana “guitar hero” type game which made Ella almost faint and then a 3 foot tall Hello Kitty bubblegum machine. I’ll take pics with Ella and her stuff tomorrow…we got home just on time to get Ella to sleep before 9. We had a fun night. Upon arriving at the party, the girls were given fairy wings and tutus. Face painting! Grand plie. Happy ballerina. Ella and Brickelle leading the pack. Dancing around Brickelle who was playing Sleeping Beauty. The party girls! Laughter. A new dance move. Mommy and Brooklyn. I don’t think Ella has ever been up so high. Love and happiness. Last dance.
Happiness personified! Love you. Mom
