Happy 21st (Earth Day) Birthday, Katie! I love you, and can't wait to give you a hug!!!
This isn't the first birthday Katie has been someplace other than home... On the way home from a school trip to Washington, D.C., on her 14th birthday, the whole plane joined in song to wish her a happy birthday! This year, she's winding up her semester abroad, spending her birthday in Munich and I hope she's having a beer to celebrate!
Cake on Tuesday!
Happy Birthday, Katie!
