Katriel turned one with a tremendous amount of celebrating in our home. We woke her with our family’s tradition of waking the birthday child with the birthday song. I’ll try loading that later… YouTube doesn’t like me much these days…
Here she is in her birthday-girl outfit. ♥
And crown!
She loved the balloons her brothers and sisters put on her chair. We don’t think she’s ever seen them before.
She loved the presents tissue paper, bags, and tags.
She didn’t love the group shot…
(look at Johanna! ROFLOL)
She LOVED being sung to…
And I’ve never met a Butler that didn’t like a cupcake.
She’s looking at that cupcake like I look at the last twelve months: “Where did it go?”
Praising God for His mercy and generosity. Ducky is here. She’s here and it’s okay.
I’m hoping I can muster up the strength to share her birth story one of these days.
But even if I don’t, I’m sure to have some more photos of this awesome crew I get to do life with.
