A Little Late...

Last Sunday my Erin turned 7 years old.

Seven years ago, she wouldn't let me go to sleep on a Friday night. Quietly letting me know that although she was scheduled for Monday (and Patrick & I had one last peaceful weekend planned), that she had other things in mind.

Since day one she has:

Kept us on our toes...

Kept us awake worrying about our parenting ability (or lack of)...

Amazed us with her eagerness to learn all things academic...

And her compassion for others.

I love you my big girl. You make us proud every day and I am so thankful to be your Mom.
