Theme Thursday: Happiness or Joy

With a third birthday celebration last week, we had smiles left and right.  But this photo was my favorite:

Elena and her best friend Maggie

The runner-up:

We promised her big girl "princess" underw.ear when she turned three.  I let her wear them until she peed on my blanket.  She hasn't seen them since.  But it was a happy half-hour for her!

I'll do a proper birthday post soon.  But in the meantime - check out all the happiness and joy over at Cari's!   (Especially Cari's photo.  Which is bursting with more color than the toxic frosting on those oh-crap-we-need-a-cake cupcakes!!!)
