Eight Years Ago Today...

I went into labor @ 2am & gave birth to this blonde bombshell. She is my only child to be considerate enough to be born @ a decent hour (5pm...just in time for dinner!). The other 2 had other plans.

It's been a rough rode @ times: illness, writing on cars with rocks, constantly forgetting a lunchbox, coat, herself (she fell asleep on the bus once & didn't get picked up by the daycare.

Anyway, it's been worth it too. She is so much fun now & coming into her own personality. She may fight with her big sister, but she's awesome with her little brother. AND, if you need a toilet scrubbed, she's your girl!

Happy Birthday Rachel. You've earned it...

If she's free, she's always welcome to scrub my toilet. Seriously, she LIKES to clean? I can't even get Dean to pick up his vat of Tinker Toys...which would be why the Tinker Toys have been hid out in the garage....

how cute! to be 8, what was that like??? I can't remember, I tend to block it out the buck teeth, knobby knees, and forgetting to wash my hands.
Where did she pick to go for dinner?
