My baby turned 10 yesterday. I can’t believe we are now in the double digits. Time is just flying by!
Since she wants to be a rock star when she grows up (in between the time she spends as a vet, teacher, writer, actress, spy, mom, and CSI tech), I thought this image from Pink Cat Studios would be perfect for her birthday card. Of course I had to add some glitter and bling because that is all part of the rock star style.
I was looking for some pictures of Elizabeth from when she was a baby, but I couldn’t find any to share. I can’t believe we didn’t have a digital camera back then (even though I know it is true). Instead I thought I would share a couple pictures from her fencing tournament last weekend. She won the silver medal! I am such a proud momma!
Action shot! She is the one on the right.
Here she is showing off her silver medal after some really hard matches.
She wears that Hammer hat under her fencing gear to keep her hair out of her face.
Happy Birthday, Baby! I love you and am so proud of you!
