Our Big Girl turned nine
this month,
last month, two months ago! We celebrated as a family on her actual birthday, and surprised her with an ear piercing session at the mall. She was so brave and opted to have each ear pierced separately. She requested gumbo for dinner this year (instead of her usual ribs), and I made it the following day. After Awanas she wanted ice cream sundaes. To celebrate her birthday with her friends, she invited her "two best cupcake pals," aka Sela & Penny, for some bowling and arcade games at Big Als.
Being the first born is tough, especially when you're expected to set a good example for your two younger sisters. But she handles the responsibility with grace & maturity. She's basically a second momma to Landon and
definitely his favorite! She's in third grade, crushing times tables and cursive writing and winning the Geography game a lot! She has a passion for gymnastics and reading and wants to grow out her hair. We love you McKinley Ruth!!!
