Today, February 18, 2012, we celebrated your first birthday.  Your mother and father did a wonderful job at planning your party.   There was an aunt, and an uncle, great aunts & uncles, cousins & 2nd cousins, 3 grandfathers, 2 grandmothers, 2 great grandmothers, friends and Murphy.

Your mother made a yellow cake & cupcakes with pink, whip cream frosting. You were showered with gifts, and inundated with picture and movie taking.  You held up the entire time.

What a wonderful first year grandma Jeanne has had with you.  How thankful I am for grandchildren who give us all the gift of bringing families together to celebrate, to think outside ourselves, to put aside for a time, any differences or disagreements, and remind us that it is "never" just about one person but the responsibility and privilege of everyone to participate that make a "family".

Happy birthday LillaMai, I love you.
