Two years have quickly passed since this kid and her family joined us from across the pond. Two years, that somehow feel like not even six months and a lifetime at once...and it has been two years of pure fun! Two years that I have had to get to know this kid and all of her little quirks - like her absolute obsession with cheetah print, leggings, and the refusal to wear undies!
Little Miss Tilly is an adventure in and of herself, and she can spread a smile across even the poutiest of pouty faces. Along with being endowed with a wild sense of humor, she is brilliant. I mean...smart. Really s-m-a-r-t. So...loving the child as I do, I was honored to throw her a little birthday shin-dig to celebrate her 4th year.
After mulling for some time over what on earth the theme of this little bash was going to be, I finally decided on an "arty party". I mean I know I'm an artist and all, but what little girl wouldn't love to just play games and do crafts? Gladly, it turned out to be a huge success because her timid little friends kept coming to me and saying "this is a fun party!" and "can we do this again?!" (seriously!). So after a few well-spent hours of playing classic british party games like pass-the-parcel, musical statues, and pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey, and getting our hands covered in decoupage, the party came to it's slightly bittersweet end. However, it pleases me to tell you that there was a pouty face to leave (there were a few at the start).
So, anyone who gets the pleasure of meeting my little Tidster is in for a real treat...but don't let the charming little accent fool you! ;)
