Mary Kate celebrated her super sweet 8th birthday in Arkansas. She was queen for the day and whatever she said went. She requested a mega DQ ice cream cake...
She celebrated with 10 of her aunts and uncles, grandparents, great grandma, along with siblings and me. (She celebrated with her dad before we left London). She was showered in attention - maybe a bit too much when you are a bit shy. Grandma made chicken and dumplings per her request. Her Uncle Andrew, Aunt Katie and Aunt Allie made her a birthday wish in donuts...
Each passing year is bittersweet. Later that day she sat next to me listening to her pink iPod and singing the way one does when listening to headphones. I considered asking her to stop - she was acting too grown up.

Looks like a really fun b-day, Mary Kate! and GOSH - I want some birthday donuts like that. Culinary talent/creativity obviously runs in the Dodd family.
