Today is my last day in Virginia until August. Some time last year before Ella's third birthday, she and her mother were in a restaurant where someone was celebrating a birthday. She wanted to have one too, so they stopped at the dollar store, bought some birthday hats and balloons, and then proceded to the store for a cake and candles.
When her birthday actually arrived, she was ready. Tonight after dinner, we had another unbirthday party. What fun it was to watch her. She was a little concerned that there were no hats, but as you can see, she handled it quite well.
I asked her mom if there had been other unbirthday parties during the year. "Oh, yes," was the reply.
When you are three, who is counting?

My, oh my, Beverly. She is growing up.
And such a mischievous sweetie she is!
Oh, these are wonderful pictures! What a nice surprise! And what a great idea! I've been meaning to start having some real tea parties with her, I think I'll buy a few more things for them. The weather is to be lovely Saturday and Sunday for your trip home. I hate to see you go. Next time we get Papa John's, and eat at a quieter place. Stay safe, Bev.
I agree with Ginny, what a great idea, the photos are oh so cute. she is changing almost daily isn't she? a true little doll baby.
How cute, Bev. Remember Alice and Wonderland, "A very merry unbirthday to us, to us ..."
She's so cute!! I think an unbirthday party is a great idea!
Such a cutie-patootie. :-) Happy UnBirthday sweet Ella.
I believe I am going to adopt this celebration for my youngest grandchild. Just wish someone had mentioned it to me before with the other seven. What a neat idea.
Cute, cute, cute....we should ALL have a very merry unbirthday from time to time. ~Joy
Such cute pictures of Ella. I can hear her giggle in them. I love the idea of an unbirthday.
How funny! And now I try to forget about the only one I have each year.... yes, time goes sooooo slow when you are a child... but so fast now.
