Madeline's birthday invitation

Madeline helped me design her party invitation. And, I successfully convinced her to let us ask for donations to the local food bank, not presents, from friends. (The grandparents and parents will still shower her with gifts, of course. . :) We've done this a few time before, but now, I'm pretty sure that this is going to be the rule in our house from now on: If you want a party, you asks for donations to the charity of your choice instead of presents.
