It's so crazy to me to think that we have a little girl who is NINE! Time goes by far too quickly. We are so happy to be celebrating our girl today! We went out this afternoon and got slurpees from 7-11 who is also celebrating a birthday by giving slurpees away for free. We took our slurpees to the park and played for an hour or so until everyone was too hot. I loved sitting on the shady bench and pondering all of the things that make this girl who she is.
Camilla is a special little girl and I feel so privileged to be her mother. She is wise beyond her years and extremely helpful. She is kind and patient with her little brothers. She is witty and full of quick responses and hilarious jokes. Camilla brings sunshine to every day and is always conscious of other people's feelings.
She is just the right amount of careful mixed with adventure and makes life so much fun! While she enjoys a little bit of spontaneity, she also leads a very organized life where everything in her room has a place and her bed is always made. She gladly stayed up the other night to organize my pantry and loved finding new homes for everything we lugged out. She loves to create and color and is often found at my kitchen table with a box of markers and paper. She is crazy responsible for a girl her age and very trustworthy. Right now she is one of the only one's who actually finishes her chore chart (bonus's and all).
She loves to set goals and reach for the stars. I know that her ambitions and dreams are going to take her somewhere pretty great one day! My mamma heart can hardly handle how quickly she is growing up and the fact that we are pretty much halfway to 18 already! We are all so lucky to have her! Happy birthday beautiful girl!
