The time that Emily turned seven...........

 120 minutes............
 3 crafts.............
 8 little girls from her class.........plus one little girls brother........plus sam and allyson
 triple batch of buttercream frosting put into decorating bags and carefully placed into the hands of children so that they could each customize their own gourmet cupcake.............
 seven candles atop of pink and purple cupcakes baked in polka dot liners............

 lots of tissue paper, gifts & squealing............
 two games- one that didn't get to be played...............
Hopefully it was a day she will always remember. (I know I will).

On another note- Emily got upset with me this morning for making her get out of bed,  not letting her wear slippers to school, making the wrong kind of toaster strudel, and brushing her hair and she told me that she doesn't love me.  And now my heart is broken.

I file these under "Parenting: Yer Doin It Right." I'm sure it's not fun but she must do those unfun things! :)

I must declare- Miss Emily came right home from school in the front door right up to me and wrapped her arms around my neck and held on for like ever. She then looked me right in my eyes and said she was sorry for what she said and that she cried on the bus. I told her I cried too. We hugged some more and now she loves me again. yay.
