Caitlin's 10th birthday! Wow!

As I am typing this I feel such a difference of emotions. My daughter is turning 10! I just can't believe it. I feel very blessed to have her in my life. She is such an amazing daughter, so loving and sensitive. I am so glad that God chose me to be her mother. But, on the other hand I can't help but feel a little sad. She is closer to leaving the house for college, or whatever her heart desires, than being my first infant. I was so nervous to have a child. What am I talking about, I still am. She has been the child that we have learned through. You know what I mean, she was and is our trial and error child. So sad that it is that way, but honestly that is just the way it is. You learn through your children what works and what doesn't and then that passes on to your next child, and your next. Anyway I digress. I am so proud of the lady that she is becoming and so proud of the child that she has been. I couldn't imagine my life without her in it. She is wanting to go out to eat and have someone sing to her. I really just hope that in the years to come, I can be a blessing to her life as much as she is to mine. Happy Birthday Caitlin!
