I was so blessed to host a tea party with some little friends yesterday. I served lemonade ‘tea’ and sugar cookies. The children laughed and laughed that each sip emptied the tiny cup and they need lots of refills. This tea part was partly a repeat of two other tea parties I have held in the last 18 months.
The week before Millie died these same sweet friends came to our house to have a short tea party with Millie. A precious memory is of the sugar cubes we added to the tiny cups. Little Millie put her finger into the tea and pronounced it to be “Yucky!”
The next time my little friends arrived we held a tea party with Little Man thoroughly enjoying being the host. We missed Millie so much but took that time to share her little pink place house with our friend. 
Yesterday when my little friends showed up on my porch they were ready for our next tea party. First we played with the toys that haven’t gotten much use since Millie left for heaven. Next we went to Millie’s shelf, taking her toys and special things off and playing with them together. We went through her photo album looking at her pictures and allowing this mama to share my sweet memories. After our tea party we played outside. My heart fills with Joy to see little children using the things Millie left behind—the pink tricycle, the swing under the tree, and jumping on our trampoline.
The guests were my little friend was Leavyn The journey of Leavyn Laine - Our Little Braveheart, along with her brother, sister and her mama, my precious friend Winter.
As we watched Leavyn play on the trampoline and just be a regular kid, we talked about how she was healing from having her port removal surgery recently. We were both grateful the bigger kids were so cautious to not hurt her as they included her in their playtime.
Oddly enough, after being fine on our big trampoline yesterday, Leavyn fell on a toddler trampoline and fractured her arm today. Pray it heals quickly and without too much pain.
Blessings sweet friends…
