5th Birthday Celebrations!!

It was Abby's 5th birthday yesterday! I look at her and still see the tiny little face that greeted me the first moment I laid eyes on her in the hospital. The shape of her mouth, her eyes and little nose. It's so amazing that no matter how much they grow up, they will always look the same! at 5, she is kind, competitive, loving, short tempered, beautiful, bossy, friendly with everyone - especially very nicely dressed women!!, a pest and awesome kid all rolled up into one! I'm mixing up all those adjectives together, because that is really who she is. Those are the ones that describe her the best. This year is a big year, she starts school, she will leave the comforts and security of home and a wonderful home-care daycare, and she will enter the world of routines, responsibilities, homework, new friendships and challenging relationships. It's the beginning of an era!
