Mary's 9th Birthday

Our sweet Mary turned nine years old!

Mary is bright and musical, but more importantly she takes her Catholic faith seriously and is a mother's helper who takes initiative to help me in so many ways with the three littlest boys. She's my right hand!


We opened gifts on Sunday morning, then went to breakfast at a nearby diner.


Mary knew that when it came time to open cards from siblings, two-year-old Thomas would feel left out that he didn't have one to give her, so the day before she sat with him and helped him draw a card for her own special day.







When we ordered hot cocoa for only the birthday girl, the generous girl ended up pouring out enough for all her siblings to share.


After Mass, we enjoyed cake at home.


Happy birthday, Mary! Next year . . . on to double digits!
