We loved celebrating Janie today. After a normal day of school, we ran to Aldi's to get the finishing touches for her ice cream pie. We went to celebrate at BJ's for dinner. Janie and Blake received a free kids meal there from when they earned Bagels with Barrett. Janie ordered a hamburger and fries. She loves burgers. We went home and opened presents--she got scriptures, a polka dot scripture case, and stuff to play "school." We ate a mint and chip ice cream pie with whip cream and chocolate sauce on top. After her family party she was off to her dance class. She gave her day a 10 out of 10.
Janie is the sweetest little girl. She is kind, helpful, and very obedient. I don't know what I would do without her!
Janie and I are wearing our BFF bracelets in this picture. She made these recently and one night told me she was going to give one of them to Callie. I told her to go put it by her back pack so she would remember to take it to school the next day. In the morning while I was making breakfast, I saw her pick up the bracelet from the kitchen counter. She held it for a minute and looked like she was thinking about something. I was standing at the stove when she walked over to me and handed ME the bracelet. She said "Here mom. This is for you." I asked her if it was because we were BFF's and she said "yeah." I love to wear it. Melt my mom heart.
Blake loved going to the restaurant that shared his initials. He asked if I would let the waitress know about this connection, so I did.
