Today our beautiful Miss M turned 8. She has been counting down the days for WAY too long and was so very excited this morning. In fact – she was awake by 4:30am *yawn*!! 

She had a great day at school and I took some icy poles up for the kids to share. She then had a “not birthday party” afternoon with a couple of friends over for afternoon tea. 

We took her to Sizzlers’ for dinner -her choice – I think it was all about the ice cream! It is so hard to believe that all those so vivid memories of her 8 years ago were that long ago. Time flies, and my love grows for her each day. They aren’t ‘ours’ for that long are they?!? 

Here is a photograph of her today, with her donut (we had that so she could blow a candle out – that has to be done you know!). Happy birthday chicken, I hope that being 8 is fun! xx
