Is it because it is a non-working holiday in observance of Eid'l Fitr (or the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan)? No, not really, although it is a special day for the Muslims and I do respect that. Yes, it did mean that I didn't have to go to work today and therefore was able to spend some extra time with the kids, so it does count for something.
Is it because today is the Feast Day of St. Therese of Lisieux? Not quite, even though I do have a special place for St. Therese in my heart. I mean think about it, for someone who spent so little time here on earth, she managed to do such great things. What an inspiration! Yes, that does make today quite special.
Is it because I got to spend the late afternoon and the evening with my girlfriends? Now that was special. Get togethers such as these are special occasions. There are hardly any dull moments. There is so much of joy and laughter in the air. There is always something interesting to talk about when you are with your girlfriends. But, no, that is not exactly what made this day extra special.
So what is it? What made this day extra special?

Well, check out these pictures. They tell a story about a special seven-year old ...
... who measured, mixed, formed and baked oatmeal cookies all by herself today!
(The cookies were yummy, MyGirl. Way to go!)
