My BABY is TEN!!!!



HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOGAN!
My dear, sweet little Lo-lo,

Happy Birthday baby girl! I can not believe you are double digits!!! 10 years ago today I had no idea how much my heart had the capacity to love and to nurture and to protect. And I never would have imagined in my wildest dreams that God would have blessed my life so much with the sweetest, most loving little girl I have every met. Logan, you make me proud every single day of your life. You inspire me with your kind, giving heart, and you teach me with your patient, forgiving nature....day in and day out, you make me a better person and I am so grateful out of all the mommies in the world, God chose ME to be yours!!!!

Here are some of the things you are doing right now:

*You are the BEST big sister! You always take the time to teach the little ones new words and tricks, and you make time every day to give them tons of hugs and kisses.
*You have proven to be a wonderful, conscientious student. Your teachers have consistently referred to you as the top of your class, a leader, and a great role model.
* You are a FABULOUS dancer! I wish I had some of your moves :) You love hip-hop and are hopefully starting jazz soon!
* You love anything from "American girl" and you are building quite the collection
* You little missy, are a SHOPOHOLIC!!!! You really must get it from Aunt Deda because you know your mommy can not even keep up with you when we shop!
*You can definitely be a girly-girl because you love shoes, accessories, and getting pampered. And yet, you also love to be in sweatshirts and sneakers, with your hair up!
* Your favorite singer is Selena Gomez and your favorite TV show is Wizards of Waverly Place, though  it seems like you barely watch TV anymore! :)
* You are really good at math - sometimes I can hardly believe how quickly you pick up new concepts.
*You are reaching several other milestones (that are just between the two of us), but I just love how you are comfortable enough with me to share all of your questions and thoughts!
* You have already figured out the qualities that you like in your friends, which indicates to me that you are really beginning to know yourself. You are so much more self aware than I ever was at your age!


*Here you are with Kay-Kay, your BFF!



* You've never liked people singing to you!!!
* You have so many people who adore you!
* You are the light of my life, my first born baby, my ANGEL....and I just love you more and more every day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY GIRL! Mommy loves you!
