Happy Birthday Mimi!

John's mom Mary (that's Mimi to Sylvie) and his sister Amanda are on their way here now, I hear their plane just landed and John is waiting for them at arrivals. They'll be staying with us for the weekend and Saturday is Amanda's bridal shower! Sylvie is so excited and asked about them all day today, and I know they're chomping at the bit to see her. John and I both took off work tomorrow and we have a lot of catching up to do. It's going to be such a fun weekend!

And to top it all off, today is Mimi's birthday! Sylvie didn't get to wish her a happy birthday today, but I have no doubt that she'll make up for it tomorrow. I just know that she's going to sing the Happy Birthday song as many times as possible tomorrow, not only to showcase her undying love and affection for her Mimi but of course because with the happy birthday song comes birthday cake. She's a clever one, that Sylvie.

Here are two of my favorite pictures of Mary and Sylvie, from the day of her birth and soon thereafter. Happy birthday Mary! We love you and can't wait to see you and celebrate! Now hurry up and get here already...
