Tomorrow She'll Be 9

She arrived one week shy of a month early… She's always been in a rush to just about everything… Still, I can't believe tomorrow she'll be NINE. Amazing.
She is such a responsible and sweet girl. She has her stuff together and keeps the other two in line.. I know that if I need something done or taken care or, it's her name I call. She is so very mature for her age…and still, she's only nine. She still loves Disney (thank goodness!) and playing with her dolls. Top of Christmas list this year -- Julie, the historical 60's American Girl doll.  While she is becoming more and more interested in clothes, shoes and jewelry, I'm glad to see her hanging on to her dolls as she grows… There's no rush, baby. We love you sweet girl.

Frankie, A Hippie and Cutie Pie Witch…. Happy Halloween!! 2014

 It rained. It was chilly. They didn't care. We didn't care. We still had fun. :) That's what matters. Our house for the last three years… It's becoming tradition. I hope it holds. I love seeing these kids trick or treat. I love their faces-- their smiles… their glee. The one night of the year they get to dress up how ever they can think up and 'be'. I love it. They're all getting so big and I know the days of Halloween and dressing up, candy, glee won't be here forever… but for now, I'm soaking up every little bit that I can. Love it.
