| Cake for breakfast today! |
Birthdays were always a big deal at the
Wooten house. Pancakes with candles for
breakfast, notes inside of lunch boxes, favorite foods for dinner, presents,
cards, phone calls, parties, and cake. I
am happy to say the big deal of birthday lives on at the Queen house. We go all out to celebrate. We start every birthday morning with cake!
Today we celebrate Kate’s birthday. Her celebrations started on Sunday with a
puppy paw-ty in Cullowhee with family and friends who were in town for the
weekend. All the kids got to adopt
stuffed puppies and we ate hot dogs and puppy cake. She has been receiving cards and treats in
the mail. Mattie and Ella took great
time to choose her present and wrap it. We
shared a doggy cupcake for breakfast and we will have a party with her class at
school this afternoon. She is totally overwhelmed,
but her LIFE is of
great value to our family.

| Kate's BIRTHday. |
She has brought our family so much joy
from the day we knew she was on her way.
As soon as the doctor confirmed I was pregnant, we told the Ella and
Mattie they were going to be big sisters.
They were so excited. They got to
call and tell our family, “we are going to have a baby.” For nine months, they talked to her and even
had me open my mouth to scream down so she could hear down in my tummy. They greeted her at the hospital with big
sister t-shirts and hairbows. Ella and
Mattie love her so much. One of the greatest gifts of her life is watching how much her sisters love her. Kevin and I
have taken extra time to enjoy her coos, wiggles, crawls, steps, laughs, songs,
and stories. We have enjoyed these “firsts.” As I drove to her to school this morning, she
sang dinkle, dinkle little star and her ABC’s.
I listened, smiles, and gave God thanks for the precious life of our
Kate bug. Happy 2nd birthday
Kate Marie Queen.
