Maddy is 7 today

Today is Maddy's 7th Birthday, it doesn't seem like we have had her all that time. We don't sing Happy Birthday to her because she doesn't like it and runs away could be my voice we think it's because she associates the song with candles and she doesn't like the candles lit.
Today was a beautiful day so lovely and warm, I managed to wash down and put away the garden table and chairs for winter.
