*sniff sniff* Bittersweet day.

My sweet daughter turns 7 today and I'm in tears over it. 7 just sounds so old! I'm so incredibly proud to be her mom, and I love the young lady she's turning into. But I miss the sweet innocence of the younger years too.

I love that she lets me wake her up every morning with a back massage. I love that she's always making crafts for other people. I love that she always asks to help me cook. I love that she still wants to wear pigtails. I love that she has her first true best friend. I just love that kid.

I wish I had pictures on my computer from when she was very little, but I didn't have a digital camera back then.

So here are a few that I think really capture who she is.
