Some days I can't believe my baby girl is so so big. I love having a daughter as my oldest and my first. We have such a special relationship and she has always been such a sunshine in m y life. (yes I used to sing her that song) Just this past weekend we took our first 'girls day out' trip to Seattle. It was wonderful. We had such a fun time doing girly things and not once having to stop to break up a fight or tell someone to get their hands out of their pants. ( boys) We went to Pike's Place Market and then the most fabulous of all was The American Girl store which makes every female wish they could be 9 years old again. How cool it would have been to have a doll that looked exactly like you! I love my oldest.
