My favorite girl in the whole wide world turned 6 yesterday.

She's refusing having her photo taken these days, so I'm making do with some shots that date back a month or so. At six, she is wild and full of ideas. She loves snow, and kitties, snuggly stuffed animals, fancy things. She is passionately in love with her close friends. She tests my patience at nearly every possible opportunity, and she claims to hate getting love, and routinely wipes my kisses off with disgust. She loves writing in her "secret notebooks of things" and seems *this close* to reading all on her own (although she claims to not want to ever learn, and insists that we will still be snuggling each night so that I can read to her before bed, even when she's a teenager, even after she's a teenager, when she's a grown-up). She is a complicated, stormy little thing with a loud and quick temper at home, yet she's known at school for being polite and kind and easy going. I love each facet of her, even when she is making me feel completely bananas. Happy birthday, sweet girl! I know that six is going to be wonderful!
happy happy day to n!
