Again, Way Too Much Time Gone By!

I really stink at posting to my blog. It seems I only remember to do so when something big has happened. Today is one of those days. My youngest daughter turns 7 today.

She's quite a piece of work. You know when your mom gets mad at you when you're 16 and come home late and screams: "Someday, you'll have one JUST LIKE YOU!!!!" Well, yeah. It happened.
Daughter 2 is independent and free-spirited. She speaks her mind quite clearly - even though she is only 7. Her insights are really on target sometimes-- making me wonder if she is an old soul in a young body.

She is a smart and wonderful child. She is beautiful -- the face of an angel. But, she could sell ice to Eskimos.

She came into the world at 8:34 a.m. on a very cold January morning. She was born on my sister's birthday. She was not an easy baby, like her sister. She seemed intent from expressing her will from her first moments.

She has continued to do so. I love her to the moon and back. I cannot say how happy I am that she is a part of our world.

Happy Birthday to my little girl. Hope the cupcakes at school were good.
