I have a 7 year old


Abby turned 7 on January 21st. It's hard to believe I have a 7 year old, since that makes me pretty old, but I'm happy to have her! Abby is helpful, kind, smart, funny, messy, outgoing, boisterous, independent, pretty, and lots of fun. I put a lot of responsibility on her, since she is the oldest - and she bears it well. She is a good helper with her little sisters and tends to mother them even when I don't ask. I love to see her helping our little Alice with things.

She has made so much progress this year in school. Abby is reading really well and doing her math like a champ. She tries her best in her karate class to really follow the instructor. It's cute to see her attempting to get her posture and form correct.

Abby had plenty of cake and ice cream and celebrations for her birthday this year. We celebrated on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. She loved having so many parties and being spoiled!

Abby started the day off with breakfast in bed and a present!

Tom took Abby to Trafalga, then she got pizza for dinner, and chocolate cake for dessert.

For her party, she got to play the candy bar game. Abby had the best luck ever and kept rolling doubles. She probably ate half the candy bar!

Abby had a blast with friends and cousins over for her party.
