4 Years Already?

It's hard to believe that 1 week from tomorrow (April 19), Anna Claire will be 4 years old.  Where did the time go?  Easter Sunday has really messed with me this year because there is only 1 day between Easter Sunday and Anna Claire's birthday.  I am prepared, so far, for both.  Her birthday party is planned, but it seems that getting people to RSVP is like pulling teeth.  Normally we have her a party in the back yard, so RSVP'ing is not really an issue.  This year we are going to Chuck E Cheese, so RSVP'ing is very important because we are only allowed 2 extra kids over the amount that I planned for.  I know Anna Claire is not concerned with how many show up, but I don't want anyone left out.  Speaking of being left out, by the end of next week Anna Claire may be sick of cake.  LOL!!  She is taking 40 cupcakes to pre-school Tuesday, I've ordered her a cake for Tuesday, and then another cake for her party.  We decided to do a cupcake for every kid at pre-school because she couldn't invite them all and I didn't want anyone to feel left out. 
Yesterday we had an Easter egg hunt at church.  I was surprised at Anna Claire's egg hunting strategy.  She's very competitive, so her strategy surprised me.  There was a ton of eggs laying around when we walked outside and Anna Claire was being picky about the eggs she picked up.  I expected her to grab every egg she could, but she didn't.  She picked up one egg and said, "nope not this one, I've already got a pink one in my basket."  Anna Claire was very laid back about the whole egg hunting experience this year.  She may have been tired from all the talking she did during the children's minute at church.  : )

Being very selective about which eggs to put in her bucket.
