Can my first baby REALLY be NINE years old?? It does not seem that long ago when on Easter Sunday morning while Wayne was passing the Sacrament in church I watched him as I grimaced through each contraction that became more and more painful as they came...just over six hours later, with little to NO pain and only a couple pushes...out came our beautiful baby girl! She continued to impress us (although we didn't realize the extent of our impression until her three siblings followed with NOT so great eating/sleeping/baby skills) when she slept through the night at only 6 weeks old, behaved like an angel even in church and was just the sweetest little baby! Now, at 9 years old she continues to be a GREAT girl...good example, hard worker, obedient and loving! She still continues to impress us DAILY with her artwork and creative creations! This girl is already ready to "sell" (according to my little brother who is a credentialed art teacher) since her artwork is already publicly displayed!? We sure love our little/big girl! Happy Birthday My!
Birthday morning. We obviously like to come right down and open presents!
Maya requested a square ("not a rectangle Mom") yellow cake with cookie crumbs on top...here's what she got. Hope it met her expectations!?
Some of her latest artwork displayed in our home!
This is the piece publicly displayed at the Robert L. Trigg Education Center. (Please excuse the photo quality...lack thereof...this photo was thankfully taken by my mom on her cell phone)
Water-colored piece displayed at the school art showI love my girl!

Check out your cake skills Kelly! We are the same way with presents - first thing in the a.m. What a great little artist - I had no idea.
Love the cake and WOW on the artwork. Did she take artwise or just come up with that herself?
