We kept Maddie's birthday simple this year. She had a great day at home, highlighted by watching Dancing with the Stars with mommy in the afternoon while eating popcorn and drinking her own glass of coke. Then in the late afternoon she had dance class which we followed with going out for pizza with grandma and grandpa and Aunt Kari and Jack and Abby. I was feeling bad for not planning anything fancier when Maddie said, "This is the best birthday ever." I forget that it is sometimes the simple things kids enjoy the most. I made Maddie's cake and although I'm not the best decorator ever, she loved it so that's what counts. I was surprised at what a huge hit the Walmart crown, earrings and ring were, she couldn't wait to wear them and still wears them frequently. I think she really believes that she is a princess.
