Happy Birthday Maria!!! You are 8 today!!!

While I sit here watching the 2010 Olympic figure skating competition, I am reminded of another similar night that happened exactly 8 years ago.. in a small town hospital delivery room in Ozark, Alabama. I was watching the 2002 Olympic figure skating competition, waiting for Maria to decide to finally come into this world. And what a night that was!! My first baby girl was born and my life was forever changed, for the better. You are my little ray of sunshine, my sweet, sweet little girl who has the most tender heart and gentle soul. I love you Maria, I am so very proud of the little young lady you are growing up to be!

Now on to the pictures! Maria had a few of her very best friends come over to help her celebrate and one even stayed over for Maria's very first sleepover. What a special day for a special girl! She got her very first Webkins from a couple of her friends.. Who knew that was what 8 year olds were into now.. I certainly didn't!



And she was almost as thrilled with the books Mike and I got her. I LOVE her love of reading!


Happy Birthday Maria!!! I hope you had a great day, and remember, we will always love you!!
