Today is the big day that Delaney has been counting down to for many a moon. She is hosting her first ever slumber/birthday party and to experience the excitement through her eyes is an unbelievable blessing. Three of her girl friends will arrive at her front door today promptly at 5 pm, and the giggling and chatting and singing and dancing will be underway without any further ado. Every mention of this event has brought huge smiles, excited claps, talk of food, treats, activities and the like - and the enthusiasm is infectious! Delaney is an adorable, thoughtful, intelligent, sensitive, creative, capable, delightful, sweet and well-behaved young lady and we enjoy her more than words can say.
To observe her anticipation for this long-awaited birthday party is a reminder of the wonder of childhood and a reminder of how we ought to be living our lives even as we grow older and older...
