I think it would be fun if Emily got a whole bunch of cards on her 30th Birthday. I have never done this before so wasn't quite sure if I wanted to give out her home address publicly. So I asked Jenn at the Arc of the ARTs thearcofthearts.blogspot.com/if I could just have them sent there. She said sure and I am not certain about how she plans to do it...all at once or give them to her as they come in...but anyhow it might be fun. If you want to do this be sure to say you are a friend from Uno Mas so she knows the connection. You might even want to put a pic of your kids in it too if you have one. I am hoping she will bring them with her when we go to Vegas a week later in case she is still in the dark about who is who. Her Birthday is May 3 which is on a Monday You can send them to: Emily Dodson C/O Jennifer Gildred/ Arc of the Arts Studio 2818 San Gabriel Austin, TX 78705 Thanks Jackie

Oh yes! Birthdays rank right up there with her on a par with Halloween her other fav. In fact when she was little our rule was...NO MENTIONING YOUR BIRTHDAY (May 3) until the day AFTER Easter!!!!
That's one thing I really miss now...hearing her obsess over it...Heaven help her new living mates!

;D ;D ;D ;D
Whatta great idea!!!! Can I tell you I love Em's witch mask on the ark page. sheesh i could never do that. Ya know Jackie Olivias favorite thing to read besides her zack and cody script (from an episode about disabilities someone sent me the whole script my girl has memorized even the parts where they say okay ...(cody moves to the right and ceiling fan hits him on the head lol) BUT actually this ties right up there to her 2nd grade birthday party at school. We had a party in her 2nd grade class and had a cake and a magician etc.So the next day all the kids come up to me with individual letters thatnking me for the magician and the cake etc and what they're favorite part was.BTW 2nd grade letters are hysterical.Well we still to this day 5 years later read those and they bring Olivia so much joy I can't resist reading em over n over.

Kathleen's calender in her head is based soley on holidays and birthdays. As soon the month changes she starts talking about all the birthdays and holidays we will need to celebrate. It's all about counting the days till the next big event. She will make lists of what we will need and plan who will come and celebrate. She may even throw in a "pretend" birthday if there isn't enough to celebrate. She lines up her toys and makes birthday cards and has a big celebration for them all. We celebrate our pets birthdays too. It just so happens that we had a surprise birthday party for her this year because she turned 13 and we wanted to make it really special. She had the best day of ehr life I think...She woke up the next day asking "who's coming over today"? Then we had a surprise party for her dad who turned 50 which is also very special, and of course I wanted EVERYONE to know he was turning 50! I couldn't tell Kathleen about the party until her dad left the house the day of the party. This summer we have a big party palned for her brother's graduation. She may jsut have to be a "party planner" when she grows up...... Lot's of celebrating in htis house! I hope Em has a very special day!! Mary Grace

Thirty!?
I'll send one. Would it be too goofy if I sent it "from" Joshua and enclosed his picture, or would she get a kick out of that?

This is probably about the right time to go ahead and send one...it is times like this that make me double think her not living at home...BUT...none of my other babes celebrated their 30th in my company either...LOL. I think they have a fun day planned for her in Austin. Thanks in advance to anyone who is doing this.
