Olivia Grace, the 9 year old Princess

Miss Olivia is 9 today!!!! Holy cow, that goes fast. She is bright, sensitive, goofy and loves with her whole heart.

I remember when we had her. I had her at Knox hospital, and they had to call in people to open up the maternity wing. And even though she was born on January 8th, she was the New Year's baby for Knox....that is how small the freaking hospital was. The Doctor kept making remarks about Chris Farley, very odd.

I have said so many times that I think Olivia was supposed to be an only child. She LOVES attention, and quiet time. She prefers reading to playing video games. She has her own unique qualities that the other kids don't possess. She is athletic, which is so odd for her being my kid. She is reading at a 7th grade level (she is in 3rd), she is eager to help with anything when she is in a good mood, when she is in a bad mood you need to watch your back.

Her best friend at the house is Emily, they are the only 2 kids that are in the same school together. She wants to be a Doctor or a teacher....most of all a Mom.

She loves Bible story and acts them out for me and her Dad, she tries very hard not to laugh at Edwin's prayer and usually says one herself at the dinner table (even though she is one of our shyer kids). She loves Church and is very good at sneaking in her diary when she goes.

Olivia, you are a great kid! Happy Birthday sweet doll. Mommy and Daddy love you so much! Thank you for gracing us with your life. Get it? Your middle name is Grace! Welcome to 9!
