Larkin is three!

We celebrated Larkin's birthday this weekend at Cat-mama and Papa's house. We told Larkin we'd be going over to their house after naps, and as soon as she woke up she ran and told us, "Hurry up! I'm late for my party! I'm three! I'm three! I can't believe it! I'm three!"

Thanks for the magic candles, Grandpa Jerry! Larkin got to blow these out about 100 times!

Larkin with her new backpack! She starts school this week and is very excited. We checked out her classroom today and met her teacher, and she was close to tears when we had to leave--because she wanted to stay longer! Hopefully the first real day (this Wed) goes smoothly.

Papa had a gift for Willa too!
