CLOE TURNS 6

Then the kids and missionaries sang in Italian

make a good wish!

and blow! The missionaries made her that cute crown.

her presents received her approval

Yesterday was Cloe's birthday and what a good day it was. We have a tradition that whose ever birthday it is, they get to choose the menu for the day. Cloe woke up and was thrilled to have her special day ahead of her. We had pancakes covered with syrup, powdered sugar and of course rainbow sprinkles. Then we were off to school (it wasn't President's Day in Italy) and Cloe was greeted by "happy birthday to you" in Italian and then in English. Of course she couldn't pick her lunch because they all have to eat school lunches. That evening, the sister missionaries came over for dinner and FHE. Cloe chose spaghetti with meatballs and then chocolate cake with coconut frosting. Because I think brownies taste better than cake, i took the liberty to make her brownies (sugar-free!!) with frosting. I made myself a few muffins with the leftovers so I could enjoy w/o the sugar frosting. She got some great presents and had a good time. When I was putting her to bed, i was talking to her about her day and finally asked "what was your favorite thing about your birthday?" she said "tutto!" ("everything")


I looked back on our blog from her birthday last year and we had asked her what she wanted to accomplish this year. Her response: Learn to read, learn Italian and go to Disneyland Paris
way to achieve your goals girl!!!

This year she wants to: go back to UT
