Dear Davilyn ~
“How did it get so late so soon?
It’s night before it’s afternoon.
December is here before it’s June.
My goodness how the time has flewn.
How did it get so late so soon?”
~ Dr. Seuss
This is the quote that you choose for our message board last week. It caught me right in the heart because of the truth behind these words. Today you turn seven. How did it get so late so soon? Where did my baby girl go?
You are just finishing up grade one.
You love, love, love, to read. When you finish a book, you immediately ask for another one.
You loved Sparks this year and I think you will really enjoy Brownies too.
You love flowers. You spent all your money on a ticket to win a flower basket at a fundraiser. You didn’t win.
We bought you one anyway.
Two of your friends bought you little things to plant for your birthday. They know you well. It was your favourite gift. They also gave you little gardening gloves and gardening tool. I need to let you garden and plant. I bet you would be great at it.
I can’t believe we are celebrating birthday number seven…
Mama loves you, Davilyn.
Love Mama.
How did it get so late soon?
