How to make someone happy

1. Give a two year old a Wiggles guitar. That's what we did for Cirdan, who had his two year old birthday party on Saturday.

2. Pay lots of attention to an 80+ year old woman. That's what Larien did at Cirdan's birthday party. Cirdan's great grandmother attended the party, and Larien put necklaces on her, kissed her cheek, and asked to sit next to her while eating a cupcake. When it was time for me to take Inwe to her classmate's party, Larien didn't want to leave. Her reason was that she wasn't done with her conversation with Miss Ruby Leigh. My neighbor let her stay while I took Inwe (along with a sleeping Finwe) to her party.

3. Get a rainbow Barbie for a six year old.

4. Draw with chalk on the back patio with the amazing, T.I asked her to lower her head so that the picture wouldn't show the inside of her nose. This is what she did.
