Happy 8th Birthday Miss M!

Can it be? My niece is eight years old. It feels like just yesterday we were making up silly dances in parking lots and watching cartoons together. Now, she's a savvy tween with posters of Justin Beiber in her room and all of the coolest pop hits on her iPod. We had a great time celebrating with the family. Leyla seems to think that she's a seasoned pro in the pool now. She's such a daredevil. Jumping off of the steps into Mike's arms? No problem. Being launched waaay up in the air and coming down with a SPLASH? "More?" she'd ask as she'd come up from under water. After watching her cousin do a dive off of the diving board, she insisted on following suit. I couldn't believe my eyes as she climbed up onto the diving board, looked down into the pool, and hopped in. Just like that. =)

Many thanks to my brother-in-law and sister-in-law for another great birthday celebration!




















Happy Monday all!
