My Granddaughter's First Birthday!

Over the week-end we went to my granddaughter Marley's first birthday party She is so adorable, we walk in the door and she says papa and grandma. I knew that she was saying some words, but I had know idea that she talked as much as she does. Marley sings the alphabet song along with the refrigerator magnet, but only if she thinks your not listening. When she opened her presents she would get all excited about what was in the bag or box and started throwing the paper everywhere. Her birthday cake had a duck on it (Marley says quack, quack). At first she sat there and looked at her cake,  then she finally took a bite of it and decided that she liked it. It didn't take her long to get it all over her, the highchair and floor. Later her sister was playing with her new presents and Marley didn't want her to so she started hiding the little pieces to her toys under the couch.  The hardest part about visiting them is that it is so hard to leave when it's time to come home. I wish they lived closer so I could see them more.
