Guess who is turning one this week? Guess who took her first steps this week? Guess who wants to party?
You are hereby invited to a virtual party
Date: 11.11.11
Time:11-1 (or really anytime)
Place: Wherever you are
I don't want to be too overboard, but this birthday represents so much for our family. It isn't just another birthday for a one year old baby. It is the recognition that life is fragile and the appreciation of life and miracles. Maisy has helped our family to live life a little more deliberately and to be more intentional because life is not just a guarantee.
So... plan to party on Friday. Do something to live life a little more fully. Eat some cake, exercise, take your kids to the park, or drive to Colorado and surprise us:). Then... leave a comment about what you did or what you think you might do to celebrate.

I thought of Maisy on Sunday. My parents shared that a ward members grand-daughter had passed away at 11 days old after having open heart surgery. I was grateful for the tender mercies you were given. I am thankful Maisy is doing so well. Happy Birthday to a cutie. I'll be in St. George partying without kids for Time out for Women. :)
Good idea, Maggie! We're so happy that you have Maisy too. I already have a leaf jumping party planned.
We tried to live the day to the fullest. Happy Birthday little Maisy! We are so happy to have you part of our lives!

What a fun idea! We drove to Charlotte and reconnected with friends here. Maddie got a special orthodontic surprise. (see our blog later!)I love the year in pictures. She has already changed so much since we saw her. Her smile is SO great. love you guys and are so glad Maisy stuck with our family!
So love this idea. I'm sorry I didn't read it until today! I was a bum and was sick but I will do something fun to live life to the fullest! Thanks for the beautiful reminder and sweet maisy.
