Happy 7th Birthday Greta

Wow! Hard to believe I have a 7 year old. I still look at her and see my first baby girl. I remember when my water broke and we scrambled to pack and install the car seat. I remember then next 50 hours waiting maybe not so patiently for her to make her entrance... eventually by c-section. I remember seeing her for the first time. I remember nursing her for the first time and last time.  I remember her first words and steps. All those cute baby things,  And now as she is growing up and into a big kid, I'm enjoying big and little moments with her - learning to ride a 2 wheeler, losing her first tooth and then another, watching her score her first basket and the huge smile that came after. So many more moments.

Big moments in her 6th year!

• First 2 lost teeth
• Reading like a champ
• Getting a new little sister
• First year of softball (well t-ball)
• First sleepover with Lyla (and Aunt Alicia and family) at a hotel (we were just down the hall)
