What a blessing we had this past October to be able to celebrate another birthday with Corrie. She had been asking all year for a piñata, and I was really looking forward to seeing her enjoy it with some of her friends.
I have not been much of a party planner in the past, but I really wanted Corrie's day to be special. I prayed that God would grant her just the right kind of birthday for her little heart. I think He did!
We surprised her with friends from Front Royal coming to visit and decorated the table with a Paw Patrol theme:
If there is one thing Corrie loves, it's a reason to eat cake:
And then there was the piñata. It was so funny to see the kids express their personalities through their interactions with the piñata. David's performance was the most surprising and humorous of all. Quite the change from his normal destructive ways!
And lastly, a short video clip of Corrie singing at her AWANA awards night last year. The last time Corrie was on this same stage, she cried and refused to sing and had to be carried off of the stage. We were expecting more of the same, but were greatly surprised!
Ellis and I sat in the very back of the large sanctuary that night (a must when Davey is with us), and we could hear Corrie's voice loud and clear above all of the kids! It was a mixture between screaming and singing, and somehow it was hilarious to us. We sure love her.
