Mikaela turned six years old yesterday, with Phases 2, 3, 4 of Operation Mikaela’s Birthday. The celebrations actually began back on Sunday. Mikaela and her Sunday School classmates Peyton and Shelby (who share Mikaela’s birthday week) brought cupcakes for the class (Phase 1). Then, Monday at Cottonwood Point, Mikaela got to bang on the birthday drum in music class and have a special birthday cookie for snack yesterday (Phase 2).
Continuing yesterday’s sugar theme, Miriam and I brought a kosher birthday cake with Disney princesses on it to the AKK class at the JCC (Phase 3). (That’s the one in the picture above). After Mikaela’s specially-requested dinner of hot dogs, corn on the cob, pickles and potato chips, we moved on to Phase 4.
She opened birthday presents from us – the new Little Mermaid movie and a collection of flavored and sparkly lip gloss (her very own “makeup”). Then Miriam served ice cream and this year’s version of the Princess Cake. The dress on the princess is Mikaela’s own design – she drew it for Miriam when Miriam complained that she didnt understand what Mikaela was describing.
The next phase of Operation Mikaela’s Birthday will be an extended family birthday celebration at break-fast at Aunt Judy and Uncle Lloyd’s house tomorrow – with yet another birthday cake – this one shared with cousin Sarah, who celebrated her 14th birthday today.
