Alli's half birthday


The year that I shared a teaching contract in Elk Grove I learned so much from my teaching partner, but one of the greatest things was her half birthday celebrations for the kids that had summer birthdays. I stole the idea from her for Allison's half birthday and each year Alli's preschool has gone along with the idea and completely celebrated her half birthday in full birthday style. This year she once again requested funfetti cupcakes with pink frosting so we made those and took them to school. The teachers and students sang Happy Birthday and gave her a special card and book signed by all of the students. "Pinkalicious" was an immediate hit and is now requested each night as one of the bed time stories by at least one of them. Both girls have it memorized and can recite it on cue.

Happy Half Birthday Alli Girl!
