You are 9 years old and it seems almost impossible that you have been on this earth for nearly a decade.
It's your Golden Birthday this year. We aren't really sure what the means but we did a lot of yellow. You've been anticipating this birthday for weeks now. Counting down and being super excited as the day neared. I love this about you.
This was a "just hanging out" birthday. It nearly killed me that we weren't doing a theme but you were sure that this year, you just wanted to hang out with your friends. So we did a movie, and a cookie cake and a sleepover. And as the evening progressed and I watched your interaction with your friends, I realized just how much you are growing up.
Today you...
love to play baseball.
are a huge Blue Jays fan.
love Demons by Imagine Dragons.
are into Pokemon.
are a huge fan of Dr. Who.
love to ride your bike.
think Brian's "claw" is hysterical.
love to read Harry Potter with me.
only allow A to call you "Princess".
mimic your brother in the worst ways. :)
are decisive.
are super sarcastic.
have a soft heart for those with disabilities.
love life to its fullest.
You teach me so much, Monkey. I've seen you grow in all kinds of ways this year. You are an incredible human being and you make me a better person. Thank you for allowing me to love you like crazy (even when it's annoying) for being you, regardless of who's around, and for making such a positive impact on our family.
I love your toes and in between your toes and all the way to the top of your head.
Mom
