Age 11, no hair bows, no dresses,



Isn't this the cutest! Gotta love it when they get their own ideas, skills and goals. There may be no more hair bows, no dresses, and our kisses have to be brief and on the cheek, but I truly looooove this child's creativity, independent thinking, her quick wit, and her big brain. God bless you dear one on your eleventh birthday, may this be a big year in your life!!

love
