March 9, or the day my heart melts. Catalina turned 8 years old. She asked for no surprises, no party, just a quiet family celebration. It was hard for me not to have the whole world around involved, shouting Happy Birthday to the most awesome 8 year old EVER. But I respected her wishes. The night before I decorated the house, got some fancy cupcakes for breakfast and steadied myself so I don't cry.
I did not cry, but my heart still went mushy inside. It's hard not to, when you have a daughter like this:

| Happy Birthday, my gorgeous, amazing girl! |
Of course, everything Catalina gets needs to be done for Amelia as well 😍
Dinner was at Olive Garden, Catalina's favorite restaurant where waiters sing Happy Birthday if you ask them. They did for my Cati. We spent a long night watching TV. Saturday we went to a sushi restaurant and Cati finished all the Legos she got for her birthday. And of course, we worked hard to finish the cupcakes and some of the pretty cake. Quiet, pleasant fun. Just like my amazing 8 year old.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, awesome child!
