and we have a birthday girl


The is what is called a giant cupcake and is apparently the thing to do among the younger set, and so Grandmama made one.  Julianna - preparing for the on-slaught of Happy Birthday singing and subsequent festivities takes a reflective look back on year number four.  Well, in another week it will be official, a fact she is well aware of, but is apparently willing to humor us with celebrating early.
The "women-of-the-house" have increased by one with the arrival of Jennifer or Aunt Jen, who is a source of much entertainment for the girls especially but also young Isaac.  Here posed with Birthday girl, who actually was quite excited and pleased to be feted for a day.
There were presents to be opened and posed with to humor GrandDaddy with new camera and flash (which he continues to try to figure out and the kids continue to tolerate).
as in even going so far as to pose.  Lydia has several expressions she uses when she poses, -- the is not the exasperated one.  I do not use that one in these blogs.  Isaac is just glad to be included and is not quite aware of what "strike a pose" means -- unless that is it.

As a real close to five year old, like in just a few more days, Julianna amazes her GrandDad ( not real hard for any of his grandchildren to do ) but you all humor me here.  Look at this.  We are copying words from a child's Bible to a piece of paper, a carefully undertaken task, oblivious to her surroundings.    I am guessing here but I think this girl, like her Mom was, is ideally suited for school.  

Thank you all for indulging me on this one.
