"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will -- to your surprise -- miss them profoundly."

--Thomas S. Monson, 2009

Helium Balloon Surprise

For our girls' birthdays, we got them a balloon filled with helium and tied it to their bed so when they woke up in the morning, they would have a balloon to surprise them.


Here is Izzy having a "sleepover" with her sisters in their big bed the night before her birthday. There was nothing to tie the balloon to, so I tied it to her ankle. She was so happy and surprised the next morning.
