I swear my 6 yr. old is going on 13. She is starting 1st grade next week and i looked at her today and couldn't believe how much of a young lady she is growing up to be. Then my thoughts came back to reality. Here's why...She had her dance dress rehearsal this afternoon for a performance this weekend. Her hair was all up in a bun, makeup on perfectly including ruby red lipstick to match her ruby red dance outfit. She gracefully performed every step on stage and I was so proud!

We got back in the van, she buckled up and told my son to pull her finger. He did, she "tooted" and laughed like crazy. That's my girl. Secretly, I was glad you did this. I wouldn't want you growing up on me too fast.
