Double Digits

Yesterday, September 18, 2011, Sara Brooke turned 10!  It seems like yesterday that we were in Vermont and I was not feeling all that well but just knew I could not be in labor because I was not due for another eight days!  I should have known then that this precious child would be stubborn, hard headed, strong willed as well as beautiful, sweet, thoughtful and loving.
She loves taking pictures (espically of herself), fishing, soccer, softball, Bama football and ANYTHING with her daddy.  I could not have asked for a better daughter, most of the time.
The saying that "Time flies when you are having fun" is right.  The last ten years have flown by, I just hope at some point soon it slows down.  I have loved the last ten, I know that the next ten will be just as wonderful.  Happy Birthday Sara Brooke!
Love,
Mom

Tooth Fairy

Mary Reese lost her second tooth the other night.  Since the first one came out while she was having her tonsils out this summer, she did not know what to expect.  Needless to say, she did well.  It was time for it to come out so she and her daddy worked on getting it out so the Tooth Fairy could come.  There were tears, and lots of giggles after the fact.  She feels all grown up now.  The Tooth Fairy came, and she is already wiggling the other teeth to see if they are ready.  I guess the reward outweighs the slight pain of pulling the tooth.
