"Oh Mom...you know I'm too old for that...
too grown to wear a Princess hat!
This birthday I am turning twenty..
the gifts and cake are really plenty!"
"I know", I said "but a mom can try...
to stop the years from flying by..."
A kiss, a hug an urging smile...
"Could you wear it for just a little while?"
"Ummm...no"
I tried...
Happy Birthday...Princess Grace!
Anyone in need of a Birthday Princess hat...never used!
I love the hat..you are a cute family..:)

ReplyDeleteAlways remember this special day in your heart Carrie! Such a beautiful post. (I absolutely thought of you when writing this post because of your living in CA and your sister's comment about your larger than life neighbors) I'm removing the post today though because I know I am suppose to keep my lips sealed, too!
