A Tween

Last week we celebrated Abby's ninth birthday. Now that Abby is nine, we officially have a tween in the house. One more year in the single digits! I'm really looking forward to this stage in Abby's life even though a friend cautioned me on being careful for what I wish for! But I truly think this is going to be a great year for her. In the last six months, she has become more patient, respectful, responsible, loving, and empathetic. Of course she continues to live her life OUT LOUD and has the gift of making others feel special. I can't wait to see what this year brings for this crazy cute munchkin of mine!
