WOW She will be 9

I so can not believe that my baby will be 9 tomorrow... It seems like just yesterday that her dad and I were waiting on her to be born, then when she finally was born we were faced with not knowing if she lived as she was born purple.... Though today you would never know this... especially as she is being an airhead running around the house looking for her tap shoes... saying that they were not where she left well low and behold she just found them where they were supposed to be....


I still remember how long it took us to convince my grandfather to hold her at the hospital.. but once we convinced him he loved her like she was his own.... He protected her until the day he died. In the hospital right before he died she climbed in his bed with him and sat beside him as his little helper. He was so proud of his Shanador. we still till this day do not know where he got that name from but that is what he called her and she answered to it when he called her..... Anyone else could call her that and she would not answer just answered to him


Sorry for the rambling.. just thinking about old times... and how fast time flies.
