It’s hard to believe, but today our little bundle of joy turned ONE YEAR OLD! We had to pinch ourselves a few times, but yes it’s true.
Here’s how our day began:
Lilia had a really good morning. She had broccoli, green beans and homemade mac and cheese for lunch! Yum, yum!
At 1:00 we had a birthday party for Renzo, Brigitte (2 kids at the home whose b-days are coming up) and Lilia. Renzo and Brigitte got crowns to wear for the day and felt pretty special.
While Lilia checked out the home in her walker….
We had a great time playing games with water balloons! After all, it was 90 degrees today! 
Next, was pinata time! Watch out!
and finally….CAKE! Lilia was cautious at first…
but, let’s just say she’s a quick learner….
…and she likes to share!
After a nap, we got to talk on skype with family and then off for a birthday dinner at McDonalds.
A good time was had by all.
We are so incredibly grateful for the beautiful gift from God that we have been given.
….and now, a look back at one year ago today!
