4 The Love


Dear Dia,
          This was the first year that I asked you what you wanted your birthday party theme to be and you said Belle. I was really happy about your choice because I consider it a good one. Belle loves to read, she believes in education and giving yourself a voice. She sees through vanity and realizes that however attractive a person's physical attractiveness may be the power from it can disappear in an instant if that person's virtues and respect for others is not equal to your own. Also she is french (and also brunette like mom). We are also french. The weekend of your birthday some terrorists attacked people my age at a concert in Paris. My heart broke for them, that people who lived in a place I so wanted to connect to just lost their lives having fun with their friends. I cried a couple of times through out those days and you would hug me and kiss me and "take care of me" to help me feel better. You sweetheart. I though it was slightly poetic that we had a french birthday party that weekend. Here are the pictures. (I succeeded in taking them this time).
Love Mommy

Hallow '15

Dear Dia,
          I was going through the storage and found some of costume things I had saved, including some fairy wings I gave to you. So you decided you were going to be a fairy for Halloween. But after I saw the cuteness that was the Pottery Barn Kids Fairy costume, which we could not afford (Who can?) I bought you new wings and went to the craft store and DIY'ed you some early Christmas decorations into a  wand and crown. We went with gold and cream (Pottery Barn Kids Inspired) which happened to resemble the Fairy Queen Clarion so we just titled ours Fairy Queen. It worked out pretty well. You also did fairly well with the makeup this year, though we didn't go all out (just some glitter swirls).
       We did all the things: like going to GG' McBride's retirement community and seeing her. 






 I was Effie Trinket because makeup.

 We also went to Daddy's work and trick-or-treated.
And we also went to Wendy and Lances house (Grandma and Grandpa's best friends) and trick-or-treated with your twin friends that you call "The girls". But only for a min because  you guys did not do to well listening to us while trick-or-treating and we had to bug out. But you were not scared of the scary people, in fact you were adorably sweet to them.
