Of course there are many others, but I'll just tease you with this one.

I had feared that with so many 'new' people coming to see her and Miss Ella being in quite the stranger danger phase right now that she's spend the day crying. Nope. She dove right in, not just into her cake, but into most people's arms. She really was interested in all the older boys who were there playing soccer. She tried to join in.

The day was great. Hot, but not too bad for her. She did end up taking a bath right after cake and then came back out for presents. She ended up taking a nice nap in the middle of the party.

In one way, too many people came. In another, there were a lot missing. Ella was wiped out! Even on Monday she was wiped. Heck, I'm still wiped from it.

I still can't believe that Miss Ella is one already. It's like a dream. A wonderful, snotty, poopie, kissable dream.
