Naomi enjoyed her third birthday on December 1. With her birthday following so closely behind the Thanksgiving family gatherings, we opted for an intimate family birthday celebration at home. It was a special time with excitement building during the day as we waited for Daddy to come home.
Naomi was thrilled to watch as I decorated her birthday cake and made the table ready. Anticipating her birthday cake was a high point for Naomi, as she remembered her Daddy's birthday cake a couple of months ago and was eagerly excited about having her own birthday cake.
Presents are nice, but for this three-year-old the presents paled in comparision to the birthday cake and balloons. I love that Naomi is enamored with the beauty of the simple things in life.
