I think I might actually have a blog post up of my kids before the end of the month!! Really??!!! I have a good reason though, my eldest turned 6 a week ago and my youngest will turn 3 next week. So, they each get a post devoted to their special day. Of course it is ‘filled’ to the brim with images. Have to make up for lost time you know.
I recently asked my girl what it will mean for her now that she will be 6. What was she most excited about? Her answers, in no particular order, were
- I will be getting bigger and stronger
- I can pump and swing even higher
- I will get more money from the tooth fairy because my baby teeth will fall out faster now
- I get to blow out my candle
- I get to pick the restaurant (a family tradition, the birthday girl (or guy!) chooses where to eat on their special day)
- I will almost be your size Mommy and I can wear your shoes for real
Kids. We have a few more years to go for that last one. I can’t blame her though, I was the same way with my mom. Of course, these images are done through my eyes, but I hope I also captured what it feels like to her as well. Thanks for reading.
I give you, what 6 looks like.
