Double Digits!

Mary Beth will turn ten tomorrow.  Since the Loveliness of Babies Fair will be here tomorrow, I thought I'd post her birthday post today. Her brothers call her "Mini Mom" and though it irritates her, it is a fitting nickname.  She is nurturing and competent, quite the lovely big sister.  Still young enough to play with American Girl dolls and pretend to be living in a Little House, she is also showing a maturity that takes my breath away.  Ten years seems such a short time ago!  Mary Beth is a bigtime blogger and she absolutely adores her friends from the Cottage and the Glen.  I laugh with their moms as we watch the second generation of cyber-buddies take shape. My first girl, I do so enjoy her and I'm so thankful for the chance to be a mother to such a dear girl. Happy Birthday, big girl!
