Big ups to Lotus for running
every Sunday. Shower Show her some lovin and stop by her place. If you haven’t already, crawl out from under your blog rock and go.
This picture of Anna gave me chills when I saw it scroll by on my computer. Today seemed like a breakthrough day for her. She’s recently been diagnosed-ish with anxiety and will soon begin receiving therapy.
But today at her 4yo birthday party, she was the happiest, friendliest, and most outgoing I’ve EVER seen her. It was a solid 1.5 hours of extreme happiness – Patrick thought her head was going to explode. This picture captures the epitome of how she felt today.

The first picture is so adorable! She looks so excited and happy! The Sea World pictures are also great, but the manatee injured by the boat makes me sad.

She has the CUTEST smile. I love the little nose wrinkle. But I have to say her expression in the last photo is priceless.

call me crazy, but I am not grasping the concept of the Donkey at SEA World. Also, I’m glad Anna looks so happy at her birthday party.
