Maddison’s Birthday

Maddison turned 5 on April, 2nd. For many months we had been psyching the kids up for the move by telling them that soon after we arrived in Japan it would be “birthday season.” Maddison was so excited that her big day had finally arrived. For her birthday she received many cards and emails, a Japanese doll, and a Dora bike, and her second Webkinz. The bike and Webkinz were the big hits.
Yes, we did let her ride the bike in the house, but it was just for a minute. We also have a tradition in our family that the birthday person can choose what or where they would like to eat dinner. Well of course she choose the Japanese McDonald's. She did stick to the usual chicken nuggets not daring to try the shrimp burger. Happy Birthday Maddison! We are so proud of you! You are a beautiful, happy young lady and we are blessed that God entrusted us with you.
