Happy Birthday Abby!

Tuesday was Abby's birthday and Thomas, who has been dying to hear her say "Thank you," decided giving her a birthday present might be the way to get her utter this most-desired phrase. So with the help of my Mom, we made her a big pink pillow.

It's made of fleece and about 14-inches square. Mom did the embroidery (or rather her machine did, under her direction). Abby loved it and did indeed say "Thanks," and she wrote us a darling thank you note.

Thanks, Mom, for helping make the project a success! We hope Abby had as much fun the rest of the day as we had with her before school.
