HAPPY BIRTHDAY KASSIDY!!!!!

My beautiful Kassidy, today you turn 9 years old. I can't believe that I'm old enough to have a daughter who's NINE!! This past year has been so much fun with you! I have enjoyed watching you mature into a wonderful young lady. I love that you are starting to enjoy the same movies that I do! What fun to sit and watch a girl movie together while the others are off doing something else. That is something I always loved to do with my own mom, and I will cherish the time with you as well.

I am so proud of you, Kassidy... I'm proud of the child you are, the young lady you are becoming and the woman you will one day be! You are a fabulous daughter, an exceptional student and an amazing big sister. Thank you so much for all your help with Kennedy and Keeghan! They learn so much from you and love you more than I can even say. There is nothing better than seeing you cuddled up with them reading a book or playing a game. Thank you for looking out for Kameron at school and for leading the way for him. You are a great role model and I hope the two of you will always be close.

I can't help but worry about your fast approaching teenage years. I pray daily that God will help us stay close to one another and keep the lines of communication open. I will always be here to listen, to talk, and to pray with you no matter what, but always remember that even when you feel like you can't talk to me, you can always talk to God. He will guide you through. Happy 9th Birthday my lovely daughter, I can't wait to see what this year brings! I love you to the moon and back!

Love always,
Mom
