Sydney's 5th Birthday

I can't believe it is March, but I need to do a posting on Sydney's birthday. I am not sure where February went, but on February 8 our little girl turned 5 yes that's right 5. I can't believe it. It seems like it was yesterday that we brought her home from the hospital. She has grown so much this year with attending a great school and making some wonderful friends along the way. We had two small parties for Sydney this year. Dad came home early from work and we had our neighbors come over for some cupcakes and playtime and then we headed out to dinner and I invited Sydney's best friend from school to come to dinner with us. It was totally a surprise to Sydney because I wasn't even sure they were even coming, but they did and you should have seen the look on Sydney's face when I said Manel was here. We also had the employee's of the restaurant sing happy birthday and they brought out a cake. I think she had a special day with friends coming over to celebrate her birthday and going out to eat with her best friend. I think two small parties was better then one big party. I hope she had a wonderful time.
