My whirling, twirling girl

Is growing right up. The other morning, Ava got up by herself, made her lunch and caught the bus for school. All by herself. Meanwhile, I stayed in bed, utterly exhausted after I was up most of the night with my sick and very unhappy baby Lilla. It felt strange not to see her off on the bus, but I was so grateful she took the initiative to get ready on her own. She's still very much a kid, but growing more independent all the time.

I remember 10 years ago when you brought Ava home to Cape Cod! That seems like yesterday... hard to think she is so grown up! We love ya Ava!

Cute pics of your young lady. Is that the playground on 6A?
