Sweet Child of Mine

My little girl turned 7 yesterday.
It's hard to believe that seven years ago I was
in a hospital delivery room welcoming this
new life into the world.
My precious baby girl has blossomed into
a beautiful little girl who has the heart of gold.
She has such an artistic talent in drawing art and performing arts.
She is opening up on the dance stage as well as excelling in
reading, writing and drawing.
A soft spot in her heart for all animals, furry, feathered and scaly.
My girl loves nature and could spend hours
digging in the dirt for grasshoppers, toads and lizards.
This year she will enter the second grade in school.
Where did the time go?
I gave her a special day on her birthday.
Spent with friends we went to her favorite place
Build A Bear
where she surprised me with picking a fox to build.
A sparkly, frills and pearls kinda girl
her fox was dressed in sequin top and skirt, bow head band
and left the store toted in a pink handbag.
For a perfect ending to the day we dined at
Olive Garden ( her choice)
with friends.
The day wouldn't have been complete with cake and candles
and singing Happy Birthday
which our waitress surprised us with at the
end of our meal.
It was a fabulous day celebrating
the birth of this wonderful child of mine.
Looking forward to many more days with my little princess.
Happy Birthday Sweetheart
