Six!

Sometimes, I look at her and think, "Is she really only six?  It feels like I've been doing this for a lot longer than six years" and other times I look at her and think "I can't believe she's already six, time is speeding by." 

Her party was a bouncy castle, pinata, ice-cream cake, mermaid tail, screaming/running kid posse extravaganza!

Ever try to cut an ice cream cake?  Me neither.  That's what I have friends like Iris for, thank goodness.  She had to involve YouTube to get through it.

We got her a Todd Horton original.  Her cat.  The one and only Gibson.  A portrait.  Copious amounts of shedding, drooling and couch scratching not included.
