On Saturday Ramya turned 8 years old... can you believe it?!?!?! Though she has only been home two years, we have been able to celebrate 3 birthdays with her. She was just one month shy of turning 6 when she came home, so we celebrated 6, 7, and 8 with her. I cannot wait until she has celebrated more birthdays home than she has alone!
Ramya requested a Rapunzel birthday at Peter Piper Pizza. Though I despise birthdays at Peter Piper, I really wanted to have a big, fun celebration for her. Her first birthday, at 6 years old, was small with only a few of our closest family members. She had only been home a month and we were still limiting visitors.
At 7, there were only two other families she wanted to invite. Though her birthday was a lot of fun, it was small because she still didn't have many other kiddos she truly considered friends.
This year, though, she was excited to invite a bunch of our friends, and we wanted to give her the big celebration she was wanting. I also love that she has so many friends now, and is really feeling at home. That, in itself, is deserving of a huge celebration If you ask me!
Ramya had a blast and is still talking about her party. We all left exhausted, but with happy hearts. There's nothing more special that celebrating someone you love with those that love you!
