Vivienne has gone and done it again.
Without even asking us if it was okay.
Whether we want to admit it or not,
our Vivienne is four years old.
She anticipated celebrating her big day for weeks.
And her wish list was surprisingly small.
Dinner at Chick-O’-Lay (or, as we call it, Chick-Fil-A).
And white cupcakes with pink sprinkles.
I mean, if she’s gonna go ahead and get older,
We may as well be sure she has a great time while she does it.
Happy Birthday, Vivienne Kate.
We love you.
And whether you’re 4 or 44, you’re always going to be our little girl.

I have been following your blog for a little less than a year now. I started following you about the time we came home from China with our little girl. Another adopting mother told me about your blog while in China. Not long after we came home, I looked you up. I was totally new to the blogging world and I found such a sense of community when I found your blog. I have no friends who have adopted, nor anyone in our church, and although we have a China Adoption group in our community, we rarely meet. It was so nice to find people that I felt understood, even if we couldn’t chat face to face.
So, I said all that to say, I am amazed at how much little Vivi has grown up since I started reading this blog. She looks like such a big girl now, and I guess I also wanted to say…Thanks! ๐
I don’t know if you will have time to actual look at my link up but if you do I am trying to find Christmas gifts but only through fundraising families. I figure this year, if I am going to spend extra money, I want it to go towards adoptive families. I have a limited view in this blogging world, but I thought you might be able to help me out. If you have time, and know of anything, I would appreciate your help. ๐
