I am not completely sure how extravagant birthday parties are in Heaven, but I am sure that princess
Madelyn is having the most glamorous party of them all! Can you imagine?
I
can guarantee that there is pink involved. Pink, and rainbows. Tea parties, ribbons, glitter, and lots of sparkle. Dancing,
Running, laughing. And cake...with a tall glass of Choco Milk.
Madelyn showed the
world how to party, how to truly make the most out of any given situation, and face it with a smile. This is no different.
Today is her day. A day devoted to the special little girl that holds a place in hearts she may have never known about. A
day all about the girl who wowed spectators with the chicken dance.
A day devoted
to a princess. Happy 8th birthday Maddie Moo!
