LILY'S SEVEN

Today my oldest baby is seven years old.  Right at this moment, she's hovering around me eating goldfish out of a bowl with constant reminders from me to chew with her mouth closed.  Such is the glorious life of a newly crowned seven year old.

First grade is treating her well, and I am continually amazed while watching her grow and develop.  Having a front row seat is such a privilege.

I decided to ask her some questions from year to year starting this year, and she had some further questions she thought we should add - those are starred.

This age really is so fun and snaggle-toothed.  We are so thankful for our sweet Lily girl and the precious person God is shaping her to be!  Happy Birthday, Lily!
