It's Great to Be Eight!


How has my little girl grown up so quickly?  She is getting so old, and unlike my boys she understands me!  She is such a beautiful girl both inside and out.


She is also pretty spunky!  You have to be with three older brothers who have very little tolerance.  She is incredibly social and can't live without her social life.  Tonight she managed to singlehandedly get company over to make s'mores with us.


She is also tender.  She feels the pain of others and is sensitive to what they are feeling beyond her years.  She has started to be quite a reader and always wants to read books about slavery.  It is beyond her sense of justice to understand how certain things were once accepted.


Just the other day she was little, and we moved to Alamosa right before her second birthday.  Now here she is a big girl!


They have all grown up over the past six years.


I love my daughter and am so grateful to have her in our family!
