This is our girl, isn't she beautiful? She is beautiful on the inside too. Happy 7th birthday sweetheart! Hilde is old enough now to crack jokes, catch us in verbal or logical errors, read anything put in front of her, and in general - impress with just about everything she tries. She is also old enough to get embarassed when her parents rock out to their favorite songs, or sing "embarassing" songs (anything sung in an operatic style). She is old enough to truly want to do the right things, and help others do the right things. I often look at her and wish I could keep her this way forever, my girl, funny, sensitive and loving. On Hilde's birthday we had a Dutch Baby Pancake for breakfast - her favorite. We spent most of the day at a summer picnic for my work, so we did her birthday activity the week before. That was a trip to sandcastle water park - the kids loved it.
Hilde was very specific about her cake, it had to be vanilla with vanilla frosting with these particular decorations. In fact, she put the decorations on herself and only reluctantly let Enoch do some sprinkles - I bet you can't guess where he put them?
Happy birthday sunshine!

7? Goodness. She is beautiful Michelle. Happy Birthday to Hilde! And I loved the theatre camp photos. She's off to a great start. (And Happy 1st to Phin!) Beautiful, special family.
Thanks Cath, I can hardly believe it myself. It seems like only yesterday we were back in Fairfax Ward and there were no kids in sight! How fast things change.
Hilde is a beautiful girl. I am so glad she is a smart girl, she fits right in to your family. I hope you enjoy every minute of your children!
Crap- I forgot to send a card! I am trying so hard at being better- I will get one in the mail!!!!!
No worries Chris - I am terrible at remembering anything these days!
