Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!

My sweet little Emily Grace celebrates her 7th birthday today. I just don't know where the time goes! Can 7 years truly have passed already since we welcomed her into the world on Mother's Day of 2002?

Emily continues to amaze me every single day, and while I'd like to think of her as my "little girl", I'm seeing more and more every single day that she's really my "young lady." Her daddy and I are so proud of her accomplishments, and what a caring, loving, sweet, and funny (the list goes on and on!) little thing she is. She's got spunk and sass, but a sweet soul through and through, and she's just a joy to be around.

I'll be taking cupcakes into her class around 1:30pm today, and then she has dance right after school (she told me last night that it's pretty lucky she gets to have dance class on her birthday, and it's kind of like getting an extra present. How stinkin' adorable is that???). We'll be having tacos (her favorite!) for dinner, then a small cake and presents afterwards.

She's having a tea-party themed birthday party this weekend, which should be pretty darn fun. I have no doubt there will be pictures to share at some point next week!

Happy Birthday, Baby Girl! May you have many more fabulous years ahead of you, and may your day be full of fun and wonderful surprises. You are very loved! XOXO
