My darling little Lady Bug turns 7 today! She is growing up so fast. She is the sparkle of my eye and brings me so much joy and happiness!
She makes me laugh with her silliness. She has such a sweet heart and a kind spirit. For example, just the other day she had some candy in her hand and Mr. Man jokingly went to take it from her saying he was going to eat it all and she calmly replied "Well, ummm, I was going to give it to my brothers." and she looked a little sad. She is constantly thinking of others. Another time, she got a snack from class and asked the teacher if she could get 2 more so she could share with her brothers. How sweet is that?!
I constantly find notes on my bed from her where she is telling me how much she loves me. I just can't get enough of that sweet little girl.
Don't get me wrong, she has an ugly side too, but thankfully the sweet side is visible more often than not!
We woke her up this morning by singing "Happy Birthday To You!" and then she requested cinnamon rolls for breakfast so all 5 of us sat down together and had cinnamon rolls (which is unusual for all 5 of us to be at the table at the same time on a school/work morning!) Mr. Man has a tradition of "BirthdayNapping" his kids on their birthday and he takes the day off from work and pulls them out of school and spends the whole day just the 2 of them. Each kid really looks forward to these days with their dad. Today Mr. Man and Lady Bug will pick me up from work at noon to have lunch, then Lady Bug will go see her cousin who cuts hair for a hair cut she so desperately needs, then tonight we will be eating her requested dinner which is, of all things, Shepherds Pie.
Has anyone ever heard of a "Golden Birthday"? Lady Bug just informed me that today is her Golden Birthday. I Googled it and the Golden Birthday corresponds with the date and your age. SO for instance, my birthday is on the 17th day of the month so my Golden Birthday was when I turned 17. Today is the 7th and Lady Bug is turning 7 so this is her Golden Birthday! Great, and I didn't plan big enough for this golden one! Maybe we can add some flair to the dinner party?? eekk. The pressure is on!

hmmmm, maybe get her a "golden" purse, or bracelet or something? Gold party hats? You can get pretty creative with gold pray paint, or gold craft glitter. How fun though! Happy Birthday to your sweet girl!
