Celebrating

last month, with my kiddos.

Keeg is 8...it physically hurt to type that big old number.

sigh.

But she is 8 and she is evolving into a little mother..

nagging her siblings

trying to corral the mischief and/or tattle a bit on the side.

She is phenomenally artistic

She is brilliant in math (though she denies this gift)

Loves Harry Potter

Loves Swimming

Enjoys playing defense in Basketball

Has one insane competitive streak

and an equally insane breast stroke kick.

Has a kind, sensitive heart

Is well-liked by her peers

Is a leader

Is a helper

Enjoys her Disney TV

and some itune-age

She is 8 and my heart is breaking a bit.

Mock me all you want;

8 is soooo much bigger than 6 or 4 or 2...

so 8 seems REALLY flippin big these days.

ugh!
