9 years old today!



 I woke up to Olivia opening my bedroom door, proudly saying "I'm nine," then shutting it just as quickly.  I then heard her shower running.  She was so excited to put on the new outfit for church that my Mom bought her.  Happy Birthday to my sweet Olivia!!  Nine years ago I became a mother to this sweet girl.  She has so much imagination and it always amazes me.  She loves to read and read and read.  She always has a book in hand and she wants to be an author when she grows up.  Every night we hear the book thump on the floor when we are downstairs after she has gone to bed.  Then we know that she has fallen asleep : )
She's my little dreamer. We love her to pieces.
We sort of celebrated all weekend because my parents were here for the first part of it.  Then we had a family friend over tonight to eat cake with us and celebrate.  She had a good day.  She's most definitely nine. 

 (I can't take credit for this cake.  My friend and I cut out the fondant pieces with her cricut cake cutter and then I put it all together.  Olivia was surprised and said it was "too pretty to eat."  We ate it all anyway)
