Her birthday was in July. But the week was busy and we had the stomach virus. So a month later we finally 'officially' celebrated Selah's birthday with cake, games, presents and family. (We like excuses to get together and have fun!)
It was a purse party, so here's the purse cake with its matching coin purse...
Decorations ready... where are those cousins...

Why is the little one so sad?
The little one wants the big one's markers (permanent fabric ones), but the big one has the wisdom of 6 years to know to refuse her little sister...
Ahh, the little one gets her own purse for the party...
Cousins arrive and games begin. Now, do you understand all the rules for the purse relay game?
Helena choosing another purse item during the game...
Examining the purse specials...
Boys don't call them purses, theirs are 'bags'...
Hmmm, now what could be in that big special box?
It's a brand new kitten!! And he sticks his paws out to play with the children...
So many little hands reaching for a stroke of that soft kitten fur...
Now, back to the games. It's time to pass the 'hot' purse. Try not to get out!

The little one is growing up too fast...
PRESENTS! Thank-you Mrs. N. for making this girl excited with your extra scrap-booking supplies...
Yeah! Beads to make her own jewelry...
Daddy handing her the best gift of all, God's Word to treasure...
(Do you still remember/treasure your first Bible?)
The gift of a purse, of course... with gum, bracelets...
...and her first perfume!
Happy Birthday, Sweetheart! May God give you many more years to live out the meaning of your name, to rest in Him, to take the time to be still and know that He is your God. We will continue to pray that you open your mouth with wisdom and that in your tongue will be the law of kindness.
