I find it hard to believe that our baby girl turns eleven today. Her arrival into the world, both the weeks before and the first few weeks of life, were not the easiest on Mom but she has 'made up' for it being a 'perfect' first born. She has grown into a beautiful young lady who is responsible, trustworthy, compassionate and of course a leader (yes outside of her siblings, too). She is a joy to be around. Her love of animals amazes me, she is still determined that becoming a veterinarian is the career for her, I am sure she will be a wonderful one, too. We often describe her as an 'old soul'. She could have been born a hundred years ago and wouldhave loved living on a prairie some where, absolutely content. She is an avid reader who devours books. She enjoys cooking and baking, especially with Dad and her Grandmas. She is a gifted dancer, who continues to amaze us.
This picture was taken this weekend on my phone as we celebrated her opening night performance in the Nutcr@cker she is in. I love the expression of total contentment on her face and in her body. Dad and Mom all to herself for the evening and a chocolate dessert on it's way.
Happy Birthday Baby Girl-we are s0 proud to be your parents.
