So yesterday we got to celebrate this occassion. We baked vanilla cupcakes with strawberry icing in Ariel cupcake liners (all requested by Emma). Emma had a hand in helping me bake which teaches me lots of patience!
Emma was so excited about this event. We've never celebrated half birthdays and now I'm thinking we should do this every year! When Rod and I arrived at her school and walked into her class, she gave this squeal, Cammie had to hold her down so she'd continue to listen to the story Jarin was reading.
All the kids sang Happy Birthday and Emma blew out candles. Jarin asked Emma, "How old are you turning?" Thinking Emma would say "4", she actually replied with "3 and a half." I was worried about her being confused, but doesn't seem that way.
The kids were all so well behaved, waiting for their cupcakes, eating fairly neatly and while eating, listening to a Pinkalicious story (which was about this little girl, Pinkalicious" who ate too many pink foods so she turned pink and she had to eat lots of green food to turn back to her normal color" after the story, one little boy asked if he was going to turn pink because he ate the pink icing.
A fun day to celebrate...some photos to share....
