I don’t think Alyssa really “got” that she was four as of last Monday. She would hesitate when someone would ask how old she was now. But now that she had her big birthday bash on Saturday, complete with guests, food, presents and cake, she is absolutely sure of her age — four! She tells you and holds up four fingers.
She wasn’t so free with her smiles yesterday (Monday). All this crazy weather and excitement and running around has knocked her flat with a cold. She went from happy to okay to sniffly and sneezing and miserable in a matter of hours. I’m hoping she’ll sleep late today — she really needs the rest!







I love that second picture! Awesome!
