Can it really be true?? You are 8 years old? Where has the time gone? It was only yesterday that I remember endless hours of snuggling with you in my bed…you were the most delicious baby and continue to be the most amazing little girl. Some things I will remember about you being 7…
  • This year I watched you really grow up. You are figuring out who you are and what you like and it is so cool to watch
  • Confidence has always been a strength of yours and I am watching you continue to nurture that confidence and it's amazing. You are secure with you are and I love that about you
  • Your bravery always surprises me and your willingness to try new things is bursting. I hope you always trust your gut and go for it!
