Oh, my goodness, my firstborn is 8 years old!! Time has flown SO fast. It's hard to put into words how much I love this spirited, independent, smart, cute, quirky little girl. She has brought us so much joy over the years, and we are so proud of the young lady she is quickly growing up to be. We have really noticed how much she is maturing, both in her behavior and physically--she seems to be losing any remaining "babyness" and turning long and lean. It seems like such a short time ago that I held a 5 lb, 6 oz preemie in my arms and marveled at her tiny-ness...
My Cal:
--loves all animals, but especially horses
--ADORES stuffed animals!
--would probably do continuous art projects all day if permitted
--would probably watch movies all day if the art project thing didn't work out
--loves to play by herself
--is fiercely independent
--finally has all of her top front teeth growing back in after over a year of being toothless!
--is a fish in the water, and a mean softball hitter
--is very creative in her imaginative play
--is great at art, and really amazes us in her drawing abilities
--has great handwriting for a leftie!
--loves cotton comfy clothes
--reminds me of me in almost every way
--made the Advanced Reading program at school for 3rd grade!
--has a compassionate heart, and is always kind to everyone (well, except her brother!)
--is tough
--has a fiery spirit and is quite defiant--which I love, if I can just guide it!
--is super wonderful and I LOVE HER!!
