Grace looks out on a cold cold wet day.

Grace lines up crayons at our playgroup's Thanksgiving party while Suki takes a look around.

The highlight for Grace was definitely the cupcake.

Looking at all of the kids.

Grace feeds Suki a bite of cupcake.

Splashing in puddles with Saffy.

My big one year old Suki.

Looking at balloons with Dad.

A happy Sook.

She loved her birthday candle.

Smiling at Dad.

Tiny tastes of frosting.

I don't think she could believe this cupcake was all hers.

Ready for another bite.

Cupcake crazy!

Smiling at Dad under the balloons.

Sweet sisters. What a difference from the cautious way between them a year ago.

Grace looks on as Suki opens a present from Grandpa and Mary.

Opening Grandma's present.

Looking at her card from Grandma.

It's a wonderful book of nursery rhymes.

These two loved it!

Dad put this ribbon around Suki's head but Grace did not like it there one bit.

These two girls adore their Dad.

Looking at Suki's new art book -- it was a big hit!

Reading Patricia Mowers' book, Baby's Birthday. It's a favorite of mine from when I was young and all about a baby's first birthday on a cold wet day just like today.

Grace couldn't resist coming over to hear the story.

A sweet end to a sweet day.
