On May 10th, we celebrated Myra's 7th birthday! Seven, really? How did that happen? She's been such a joy to us for the past 7 years and we love her more and more every day. Myra's birthday happened to fall on a week day, so she was pretty bummed about having to go to school on her birthday.
But, I knew she'd want to go and have everyone wish her happy birthday. I took a treat into her class in the morning and I know her teacher was planning on doing a big "party" for her.
She came home from school with several presents from her friends and a bunch of drawings that all of the kids in her classes had made for her. That night, she was really anxious for Dad to get home so she could open up her presents. She got a couple of new nightgowns, a kite, a new doll, some books and a huge stuffed dog that she was so thrilled about.
(So was Noah.)
We had Taco Soup for dinner, her favorite and then she requested a raspberry cake. It didn't turn out very pretty, but it tasted good.

Myra was just on cloud nine all day long. She loves having everyone make a fuss over. She got to talk to her grandparents, which made her really happy also.
At age seven, Myra is still as loving and kind and tender-hearted as she's always been. She also continues to have 100% energy, 100% of the time. She wears me out, and she's at school most of the day. Myra is the most loving big sister. Both Lexi and Noah absolutely adore and look up to her. I think Myra prefers playing with her siblings than anyone else. She is enjoying her school and making new friends, although I know it has been difficult for her. She's slowly learning Danish and I think that one day, it will just click. She enjoys reading and taking care of her "babies." We love Myra so much and are so happy to have her in our family.
