Our Baby Is 9

Nine years ago today and more than a week before she was due, our little girl came into our lives.  (Even then she had her own sense of time and determination.)  She was the perfect chubby baby with a smile and a great disposition.  Today still see that great smile and disposition.  She also has a wicked sense of humor (courtesy of both mom & dad) and is smart as a whip (also courtesy of mom and dad).  She's named after her great-grandmother, which is appropriate because she is mischievousness and gentle at the same time.  I would love to say she's "cute," but she tells me we have graduated to "pretty."  She's an early riser and one of the most creative persons I have ever known, a real Craft Diva.  She has a sense of wonder that gives joy to all.  Most of all, she is her unique self and the light of our family.

Happy Birthday Mackenzie.
