Happy 5th Birthday Mikelle

Today Mikelle is 5 years old. I can't believe how fast its gone and how old she seems. I love to listen to her talking to her little friends and how they respond to each other, it always makes me smile. Mikelle is in the middle of her preschool year and LOVES it. She will start Kindergarten in the fall. She has been so excited for her birthday, that yesterday, she repeatedly told Matt and I that {tomorrow} she will be a whole hand {five fingers old}. We had to wake her up really early to take Matt to work so we could have the car, but she woke up with a huge smile on her face and proclaimed "I am FIVE now."

Now, for Mikelle's birthday today...

...we went to the wildlife experience

(Jonah is so proud he is not afraid of the crocodile like he was last time we visited, he wanted his picture taken by it to show Daddy.)

...and Mikelle's birthday celebration at preschool, she requested hostess cupcakes for her treat to bring.
