Happy 9th Birthday Anne Craig

My sweet baby girl turned 9 on May 26! It seems like yesterday we were just having her 2nd birthday party. Where on Earth do the years go? Heck, where on Earth did the month of May go?? I truly cannot imagine our life without Anne Craig in it. She is very different than her type A control freak Mom and has a whole different laid back style on life. I learn something from her each and every day. Isn't it amazing how God gives you the children you need!! This year for her birthday we had a fabulous Red Carpet Themed birthday celebration. That party in itself will get its own post for sure. In typical interview fashion that I like to do with each birthday passing, here are some of her interests at this stage in her life.

Gotta love when Dr. Seuss, Read Across America Day, comes around and most schools celebrate by asking their students to dress up as a character. What did mine choose? Yep...
Of course there's no comprising on #1 or #2 so therefore two #1's it is!
