Collin and I watched her this weekend and she looks 10 to us! She's longer and leaner, more vocal, has NUMEROUS imaginary friends, loves God and is so much fun.
She had a great day...she woke me up at 6:45am (on Saturday, mind you) saying 'Mommy, it's my birthday!' :) Followed quickly by 'Let's make cupcakes. Pink cupcakes!' and we did. We had pink cupcakes in the oven before we discussed breakfast and she was delighted.

Daddy joined us shortly and we had breakfast together, after presents! She was excited and then Daddy needed her help unloading his truck from his trip to WalMart the night before...
Madelyn had phone calls from family and friends. Text messages and facebook wishes too...how she enjoyed each. She got to skype with some family too. :) And got a video from her one and only cousin...she was so excited and LOVED it! How wonderful it is to see the delight in her face.
After the sandbox discovery, we loaded up to gather sand at a local place and then she got to play in it! What a trooper she was all day...working hard and then playing hard to enjoy her sandbox. What a treasure and blessing she is.
Since turning 3 (you know, two days ago), Madelyn has climbed into and out of her wagon...with the sides on, gone to the potty on her own with no announcement and washing hands thoroughly, and something else...can't remember it at the moment. All of these things we noted and she told us, 'I am 3 now!' and that's her explanation.
So blessed we are to have her with us. What a wonderful day!
Thank you God for this incredible miracle!
Off to make more memories with my three year old! :)
