Mallory has been talking about her sixth birthday for almost a year. She attended a party at a gymnastics studio last fall and rapture is too calm a word to describe her response. NOTHING else was as interesting as a gymnastics party. After so many months listening to her determination and desire, I too was convinced it was the very best possibility. Last Saturday her dream came true and we celebrated with several of her friends and enjoyed watching and sharing in her delight. The studio gifts the birthday child with a special turn on a bungee swing. After the swing we enjoyed snacks and cupcakes and singing to the honoree.
It seemed fitting that the present she most desired was a doll that enjoys the sport as much as Mallory. Happy 6th baby girl.
