Leaping Lizzy!

Last weekend in Montreal we celebrated Nathanael's Birthday #2 and Elizabeth's Birthday #4.  A great time was had by all, and here is one of many beautiful moments we shared together.




Elizabeth's actual birth-day was Saturday the 12th, and on that day I made this cake for her.




Mommy and Daddy gave Elizabeth a trampoline for her birthday, and we all got to see it (some of the grown-ups even tried it out) at her family party yesterday. Then, one by one, people moved inside to warm up, leaving just Elizabeth and Grandpa still enjoying the brisk air and sunshine. Elizabeth invited Grandpa to join her on the trampoline, and I happened to look out a window at just the right time. I ran for my camera and managed to capture this special moment!




What an honour it was for me to be chosen for the inaugural reading of Uncle Calvin's incredible illustrated story, Leaping Lizzy! We were all enthralled and entertained, so much so that when we arrived at "The End", Elizabeth and Micah insisted on two immediate repeat performances!




Dearest Elizabeth Jean, our precious Princess and beautiful little Goldilocks, we love you with all our hearts! Happy Fourth Birthday, Sweetheart!
