F*I*V*E

I remember details about MaM’s birth and placement like they were yesterday. I love reading the archives here, remembering  little details about life when she was so incredibly little.

I blinked and now she’s 4′ tall.

She’s lost two teeth.

She reads.

She writes.

She adds.

She’s starting Kindergarten in two short weeks.

Saturday we had an all-girl gymnastics celebration to commemorate this milestone. I can’t imagine a better way to celebrate her blossoming independence! *sob* *sigh*

When she was going to bed that night, she told me she was sad. When I asked why, she said, “I just don’t want my birthday to be over!” I don’t really want it to be over either!
