Project 365 - Day 30: Happy Birthday, My Girl!

So today was Tana's 9th birthday and the day didn't get off to such a bang up start. It was quite an early start at about 10 to 3 (in the am variety) with her brother throwing up. This occurred every half an hour or so until about 8 am when it tapered off a bit. At that time, she was excited, we were exhausted and her brother was very obviously sick.

None the less, it didn't dampen her enthusiam for the day. After all, its not everyday you turn 9. She got to go out for lunch with her Cha-Cha, we went to Boston Pizza for supper, sans her brother and she proclaimed it "The best Day EVER" because she finally got her heart's desire for her birthday:

The Nintendo DS (Lite) that she's waited so long for. Now she's not the only one in her class who doesn't have one! (and she wasn't the only one who didn't have one). Boy was she excited. Can you see the red eyes, the evidence of the tears of happiness?? There's nothing better than being able to bring a smile to your child's face! Love you lots my girl!!
