Got to have a candle for every year!
The first big event of any new year is always Cherie's birthday! Due to the date of her emergence, the poor girl has always suffered in the shadow of the Christmas holidays. We try to make a special day even more special in return. Not always easy!
This year Cherie opted to return some bling gifts in favor of more practical items. No matter. We had a fun dinner, cake, candles and a special restaurant visit later in the week.
Like a fine wine, Cherie ages with grace and beauty, making everyone's life just that much better....
It's the thought that counts!
Her favorite - coconut!
