In heaven shines a golden star.
An angel led me from afar.
In heaven high unto the earth,
That brought me to my place of birth.
Welcome, welcome golden day.
With sunshine bright and flowers gay,
With painted birds that sing their song,
And make me kind and good and strong.
(A waldorf school birthday poem, author unknown to me)
Many friends came to celebrate Lilla Mimi's birthday. On such a magic day, we made magic boxes out of pasta,glue, and colored markers. Perfect for storing treasures in.
We had a birthday parade complete with lanterns. Out towards the fairy tree we walked and then it was time for songs and games.
When asked what kind of cake she would like, her mother and I were thinking along the lines of flavor i.e. chocolate, vanilla etc. In her happiest voice she announced that she wanted a "Chipmunk cake in dark pink". We were stumped for a few days and this is what we came up with.
and here is her answer to that question.
Her favorite present of paint. She loves to paint. And here is her very funny big brother.
Happy Birthday Lilla Mimi. May you have many more!
