Last month, k turned nine years old. This was a bittersweet celebration since nine is half-way to eighteen years old! How can that be? This article about this milestone really resonated with me. We were supposed to be in San Diego for her birthday, but D was sick, so we had to postpone our trip to the next week. Although I did not enjoy being in the hospital just before Christmas when she was born, it is nice that she is usually on school break on her birthday now.
This funny girl wanted pumpkin pie for her birthday dessert!
