24 years ago, yesterday...

Postby brite » Thu Jul 18, 2013 11:48 pm

I gave birth to the most beautiful little girl... My Cookie....

Now... she's a step mom (for all intents and purposes) to an incredible little man, an awesome companion to a great guy, a FANTASTIC student, a soon to be BRILLIANT nurse.... and still... my little girl....

Happy Birthday Cookie.... even if it's a day late....
:cake: :cheer:

Shouldn't we have a cake or at least (should I say it) some cookies? :dance:

Happy b-day mini-Brite.

Took me awhile to respond to this, because I was just in such disbelief that she is 24!!!

Happy belated birthday! :mrgreen:

Awww thanks you guys!! :3

24 still feels a whole lot like 23. I came home to a lovely bunch of roses as well as a toddler jumping up and down asking me to open my present (was also informed that I got a cake too!)...the other half got me a lovely necklace that matches the ring/bracelet set I got this past christmas.

Many thanks to you guys, as well as the parents (all four of mine) who awesomely sent me gifts from the other coast! Definitely an awesome birthday this year. :D

Thanks Sigma and others!


and ladies... as I am frequently informed when I tell the little man to stop growing (I swear I buy new shoes for him every month).... "I can't stop! It just happens!"

What's really weird is that she is now giving parenting advice to her big brother, the Poe is a year younger than her little man... LOL (No... Cookie didn't have a baby and I didn't tell y'all... the little man is her step son, for all intents and purposes... LOL)
