We were all anxious to celebrate her this past weekend.
Her party "theme" - "Sunny with a 100% Chance of Sprinkles"
Nora told everyone that she wanted "MM's" for her birthday ... she got a big bag of m&m's, a candy aisle bag of m&m's, a box of m&m's, a tube of m&m's, individual treat size bags of m&m's, and a pouch of birthday m&m's - the girl is set and was equally as excited with each gift of "MM's"!

A labor of love ... a homemade bean bag toss (painted to match the absolutely adorable bean bags) by Nora's talented uncle and aunt ... an amazing gift!
Sneaking frosting before I got a chance to serve the cake!
Many people comment on how "lucky" Nora is to have a family, but we are the blessed ones that get the privilege of loving her as our daughter. And, still on this day I remember a birth mom on the other side of the ocean that likely has an ache in her heart, and I pray for this woman whom I share much with.

Love the theme, the bean bag toss, the cake, the girls pic---all of it. Most of all, though, I love the God who brought this girl from afar and made her a Lilykid. Our lives are all the richer for having her in them. Happy 3rd Birthday, Miss Norah! xo
I think all your kiddos are lucky to have you as a mama, how 'bout that?;) Your beauty and creative permeate all you do for them and is reflected on their faces!
Happy Birthday, sweet Nora. I wish we could live hear and see you grow, but thankful for the internet and pictures and the chance to see how much has changed since the pictures of your first birthday in the orphanage. Can't help but think of the difference two years makes and wonder what our God has in store for your precious little life!
Love this! Happy birthday Nora!!

Heather, love your heart for Nora's birth mom. Your tender comments towards always get me thinking...
