Eight years ago this baby made our family complete. She is such a ray of sunshine to us and everyone who knows her. For her birthday dinner this year she requested chicken drumsticks, sourdough bread, tomato/basil/mozzarella salad, and corn on the cob. We love our Ellie Bellie!

Happy Birthday Ellie! Celebrating a birthday with Covid-19 is very different. No parties and no friends. However, both girls had "Bad Choice Day" and ate whatever they wanted and had all-day screen time. We also had visits from Jommy and Pops, FaFa, and Meme, which made it feel special.
