Thank You!

Arya had a Fairy Party for her 6th birthday and we had such a great time. I still need to post photos from that, but in the mean time I wanted to post this sweet thank you note that she gave me after the party. :) She was writing them for her friends, and after she was done she brought this one to me.

In the note, she says thank you for the Do and Discover, which is the science kit that we gave her for her birthday. She also says thank you for the cake and the pixie juice, which I made for her Fairy Party. I just took lemonade and put a little green food coloring in it to make it bright and colorful to match the decorations. I put a sign on it that said "pixie juice" (Thanks for the idea, Pinterest!!) and the girls loved it!!

Here's the back of card. If it is hard to see, Arya is on the left (labeled "me") and I am on the right (labeled "Mommy"). Arya's background is pink because that is her favorite color and my background is green because that is my favorite color. :)

She was absolutely thrilled with the science kit, which lets you do all sorts of science experiments. She had seen a similar one in a catalog some time ago, and mentioned periodically how fun it would be to have a science kit, but she was really surprised when she opened it. I wish I had her reaction on video...she just kept saying, "I can't believe it! I can't believe I got a science kit!!!" By the way, this week she told me that she decided she wants to be a chemist because she loves chemistry! (The kindergarteners periodically go participate with the high schoolers in chemistry class and get to do all kinds of fun experiments. Arya LOVES it!)
