Birthday painting

Keira- birthday

I painted a birthday card for Keira- she turns eight today! Because this blog has really grown up with her, I dug out a few of my old photos to make her a birthday post. I believe I started writing here when she was about one or two. Watching a child grow is a good, yet strange, way to mark time, watching it physically grow in front of your eyes. It's like she's just been born, and yet been around for ever.

    Love her heirloom looking top in the youngest picture. Tell her happy birthday from Montana, USA. My granddaughter will be 9 next month, hard to believe that much time has passed.
