Time keeps slipping into the future

She has a smile for everyone, a laugh on her lips, a joy in her heart. She's smart, she's beautiful, she's my big girl. She's almost always willing to help with whatever you ask her to. She's the first to offer comfort when someone needs a hug.

She's an avid reader, proficient swimmer, enthusiastic singer. She worries. She's a big sister twice over. She's a Brownie Girl Scout. She's up for any adventure. She dislikes thunderstorms, green beans and going to bed. She loves the color purple (and pink will do too), macaroni and cheese and roller coasters.

She's starting second grade next week.

Tomorrow, my first baby will turn 7 years old. I love you Miss M, my Turkey Lurkey.
