Eden's Carnival
Almost two months have passed since Eden's 6th Birthday Celebration. This post falls into the "better late than never" recap of Eden's happy day...
We pulled out all the stops for a backyard Carnival fit for a bearded lady! With a couple of months of build up, Eden was super excited when the day finally arrived. She loved having all of her family in town, watching the party come together, and then celebrating with her friends. It was such a happy occasion!
So, my little piece of paradise is now 6-years old. She has lost teeth, learned to tie her shoes, can ride her bike with one hand, has started to read, has a smile that lights up a room and is still full of all the spunk and spirit that she brought with her into this world. Basically, I love every little thing about her. Even though a part of mommy will always think of you like this:
I hope you know how very proud I am of the little lady you are growing up to be! I couldn't imagine a more perfect you. Mommy loves you...to Pluto and back.

P.S. There is absolutely no way I can post about Eden's party without including the following:
I can't even begin to express how grateful I am to my family for pitching in to help gets things set up on the big day! Even Mom's encounter with a golf ball size spider didn't stop her from lending a helping hand. They all did such an amazing job with the decorations, frosting the cake, blowing up over 300 balloons, helping with the games, taking pictures, etc. I am one blessed girl to have such an amazing support system. From the very bottom of my heart...Thank you, Thank you!

Simple
It's really the most simple things in life that can bring the most joy. These little chalky creations are where I found my treasure today. Simple and Sweet.

My Levi
Sometimes an ordinary picture stops me in my tracks. This is one of them. Levi is telling me in this picture, "This is a ghost." Pointing at the white blob on his pumpkin.
There was a very good chance that I wouldn't remember in 15 years what he was telling me when I snapped this photo, but now I will. These little freeze frames are beyond precious to me. If I can't keep him little, at least I can save a little moment in time like this...when I just love him so much it makes my heart almost hurt.
I just love you, Levi...and your ghost, too!

The Sweetest
Eden made a bee line from the bus to the house after school today. She always beats us home, because Levi likes to take in all the scenery. He can be one pokey-joe!
When Levi and I finally made it to the house, I found this on the front door.
I really don't think it can get any sweeter than that. An amazing tiny treasure.

The Letter "I"
Today's Tiny Treasure is brought to you by the letter "I".
Eden practiced writing the Letter I in Kindergarten today. She then had to complete a sentence that began with "I...
Her sentence: "I like going to church."
My sentence: "I like that Eden likes this."

Paper Puppets
My sweet Eden came up with these all by herself today and I think they are the cutest! My very favorite part are their red lips! Oh, how I love her creative little brain.
We had an action-packed weekend! Eden's birthday posts coming soon. All I can say is that I am one blessed lady. My family is absolutely A-mazing!
