Our sweet Lily Belle turned three exactly a week ago. We were actually on the road on the way back to Nashville from Chicago on her actual birthday. And thus far in her life, she has had more birthdays waking up at the Davidson's house, than she has at her own house (2 at the Davidsons, 1 at home). It's hard to believe that our precious little girl came into the world three whole years ago!! What an enormous blessing she has been to Dan, myself, and Isaac. We all love her so dearly.
Last night we got celebrate lily at her birthday party with all her Nashville friends. One super sweet story about her birthday party. We had been planning on having her party at the park just down the street from our house. Dan was sent out to the grocery store just an hour before the party. He called me to let me know that there were already two big parties going on at the park. So, we had to do a super quick change of plans. As quick as we could we cleaned the house and got ready for the party to be here. As we were in the midst of getting everything ready and running around lily walked up to me with the biggest tears in her eyes, and fighting back the sobs, and says with a big frowny face "mommy, no one is going to come to my party now." And huge tears started rolling down her face. I grabbed her up into my arms and tried to explain that Dan and I had called all her friends and told them to come to our house instead of the park. I told her not to be sad, and that we would have a fun party at the house. And these huge tears kept streaming down her face. In her mind, we had canceled the party, and all her friends were going to the park. As soon as she realized they were coming to our house, she was happy again and had a super fun time!! It was such a sweet moment.
