Abby Shines at Nine!

My beautiful first born daughter turns nine today.

When I think back, nine is the age when I really start having strong memories.

I thought I was so grown up.

She does too.

Abby has always been such a JOY to have in our lives.
She's the "Life of the Party"

and almost always has a SMILE on her face :)

One of my favorite traits of hers is the authentic love she has for her siblings...she truly is the BEST Big Sister ever!

She loves nature, animals, pretty much anything that can breathe.

She is a nurturer...

and a compassionate, affection and caring soul

And that girl loves her some FASHION!

(don't know where she gets it?!!)

We've always called her our lil Cheerleader...

She loves school

(1st day of Kindergarten)

and dressing up

She is the Momma Hen of the bunch

She loves learning about God & doing Mom/Dot Bible Studies...precious times

She loves music & has turned into quite the pianist...we adore watching her play

She is our BIRTHDAY GIRL and we love her so...

*Happy 9th Birthday Abigail Kathryn! We are so thankful for the gift of YOU*

A mother's treasure is her daughter. ~Catherine Pulsifer
