Sarah woke up the day of her party in some sort of funk. She complained of a stomach ache, but no gastrointestinal issues occurred. We thought that she would perk up with the surprise arrival of Aunt Beth and then her party guests. Aunt Beth was able to pull some smiles out of her, but as you can see from the pictures, the Garden Fairy party just wasn't doing it for her.
Anna, on the other hand, had a great time.
Making Flower Power Fairy Food... hummingbird eggs, pepperberry sticks, dried mushroom caps and fairy fluff.
We managed to wake her up so her friends could sing happy birthday to her. She licked the icing off of the candles, but that's all she wanted.
She woke up this morning fever free, but is currently asleep on the couch in the den. I'm sure the fever is back which means we won't be celebrating with her friends at school tomorrow.
Gramps is coming to town today for a conference and will be coming out tomorrow night for pizza, presents and hopefully a leftover cupcake. Sarah will be excited to see him.

Oh my. So sad. Really. She feels so bad, and all those other fairies are having such a good time.
Seriously brings a tear to my eyes. It was a glorious party for a five year old, though! Genious Mom and Dad to pull it all off and I'm sure it was lots of work and planning. Hope pizza and cupcakes with Gramps goes much better (maybe get a photo of Gramps in a halo??)
