November 24, 2013. Ridgeland, Mississippi. Six Years Old.

Molly is now 6 years old.    Tonight we celebrated.    For her special birthday dinner dinner she chose chicken and mashed potatoes, with ice cream sundaes for dessert.  She wanted nothing.   Andrew cooked the chickens on the grill and were delicious as well as moist and tender.   And Christina's mashed potatoes were superb.    Linda, the other grandmother was there too so it was a festive occasion, complete with decorations and balloons.

 Molly loved it all, but she especially enjoyed her gifts.  Last Christmas, her cousin was given a fancy Cinderella coach, that turns into a pumpkin.  She loved it and played with it while her cousin was visiting.   Ever since, Molly has been wanting that same gift.   For these 11 months, she has asked if perhaps Santa could give her one of those coaches.  Of course, no one told her yes, until tonight.  Linda gave her the Cinderella Coach with the horse along with Cinderella, who lights up.  She was thrilled.   The rest of the gifts were opened and thanked but but she quickly returned to the Cinderella Coach.

Of course, the whole time she was wearing the Princess Belle dress, sent to her from Aunt Susie in Texas.  Molly was in heaven.   The adults and other children all toasted and gave thanks for Molly, born six years ago.  She just kept smiling.
