Kalkidan turned 5 this July and in a way celebrated her first birthday. She had such a gleam in her eye (which you could see if I could get my other photos to upload...ugh) and was so full of joy and surprise throughout most of the day. She mentioned that she had never had a birthday cake before or presents and couldn't believe that the fun just kept coming! She was blessed by family both near and far celebrating with her either in person or in spirit. We kept it pretty low key for the most part, having a family pool party at Nana and Papas and dinner with Grandma and Silly Grandpa from St. Louis. All went well until the end (which you could also appreciate with the photo of her giving me a look to kill) as I announced the day was coming to a close...oh, the many faces of Kalkidan! (More to Come)

Happy birthday Kalkidan. I love you so much. I'm glad it was your birthday. I'll see you in two weeks. I love your cake. And I miss you. Love, Menkem Jameson
Oh, I bet I have an idea what that face looked like. Somehow I think I've seen it before. If looks could kill! Tell Kalkidan Aunt GG and Uncle Jeff will bring her gift to St Louis. When's Michael's birthday so we don't miss that? Much love and adoration,
The ellerbee eight
