Happy Birthday To Her

It's a birthday post again. Our second child, first daughter, is celebrating today. I heard that she's rubbing off on her daughter who got up and made a delicious pancake breakfast for her mother to celebrate! Being a good cook is a family tradition for them. I remember my daughter started to bake cookies when she was about that age, too--fourth grade--because, she told me, "I wanted cookies more often than you had time to make them. So I thought I'd just start making them myself." It was a success.

Now, she is a college graduate (all paid for by scholarships) and has just started a superb new job in a university library in acquisitions. It is probably the most appropriate match-up of interest to vocation I could ever imagine. Her----Library---New Books.  Here are some adorable photos to celebrate her life.

 

One of her first cooking successes: Christmas cookie decorating.

This is the branch from which she fell that resulted in that broken wrist.

 

So adorable...

This is not a particularly flattering photo...but it is a true rendition: reading all the time, regardless of whatever else needed done. (Such as finishing dressing.) She taught herself to read at three and a half and has never looked back. Her new job as a university librarian is exactly the right career.

 

LOVE YOU FAYE!
