Cupcakes and Preschool

Birthdays are a big deal when you're in Preschool. On Sunday, Meghan seemed well enough to assume she would be going to school on Monday to celebrate her birthday. So, she helped me to frost and decorate her cupcakes. She loves cherries, so it was obvious that a cherry would be on top of the purple frosting.

Birthdays are one of the few days parents are allowed to visit school since she attends a Montessori, so that makes it special to begin with. The students get to wear a special birthday crown and go over their answers to a slew of questions... where do you live, who is in your family, what is your favorite color? Pink, purple, blue. Etc.
Then as the teachers are taking role, the students come up to shake the birthday girl's hand or give a hug. This is Vasilli, Meghan's dearest friend who gave a HUGE hug

They have a special table where the birthday girl got to choose her friends to sit with her. This year her brother Nathan was even able to join her at the table. The kids all loved the cupcakes, and Meghan had a great morning at school
