Yesterday was a very special day in our family. My oldest daughter, Lauren turned nine years old. She is such a blessing in all of our lives. She is kind, caring towards others, smart, beautiful, helpful, the list goes on and on. I am very blessed to be her mother. A perfect example of her sweetness, is that just this morning, she went downstairs and cleaned up her big brother's mess and the school/art room all by herself. She said that way, I would not have to do it. :) I can't believe that she is already nine...the years just go by so fast. It seems like just yesterday, I held her for the first time, and now she is so grown up already.
We celebrated her special day by going shopping for some art supplies to go in her art desk, that is on order for her birthday gift. We also went out to her favorite place to eat. Today, we are going skating as a family, and making her favorite smores instead of cake. :) (We celebrate birthday weeks in our home.) We are having a big skating birthday party in a couple of weeks for both Lauren and Megan's birthday celebrations with their friends this year. We tend to do this close to the end of the year, not really sure as to why. :) But it works well for us. Here is a photo of my beautiful little girl, taken yesterday.
