Happy Birthday Madison!
It is hard to believe that my "baby" turns 14 today!
It seem like only yesterday that I was toting her around
in her pumpkin seat.......
It has been such a joy watching her grow
from a sweet little baby to a
beautiful young lady!
When removing my Valentine's display from the mantel,
I quickly decided to replace the display with items
to honor my birthday girl!
I think she was in second grade when I had
this photo taken!
Sprinkled around the mantel are her
adorable handmade Duct Tape Flowers.
Displayed in the lantern is an "animal"
she made when she was in fourth grade.
It is now a mystery animal because
we (including Madison) can not remember
what it is supposed to be!
The print of the bicycle was made
in 7th grade art class last year!
Madison painted this excellent graphic tree
over this past weekend!
I love the contrast of the dark vs the light!
A few summers ago we took a family trip to Boston.
I love this photo of Madison walking the
freedom trail after a rain storm.
It is a reminder how I must let her go
little by little as she walk the road
God has placed in front of her.
Madison
What a joy you are to us!
Your laughter is contagious...
Your smile is too!
I've seen you blossom into a responsible
and loving young lady!
Your artistic talent is a gift from God!
I have seen you make positive choices
in the friends you make!
As you continue to grow and mature
may you look to God as your source
of direction!
May you hold firm to the path
He lays before you.
May He bless you!
Happy Birthday my dear....
I love you!

I love this posting that your mom did in your honor. I have two funny stories to tell you about it. Remember to ask me, as my memory isn't the greatest any more.
You are a precious young lady.

Holy Cow Dee Dee...she is the spittin' image of you!! Happy Birthday to your sweet baby...and she must be following in her mama's footsteps with regard to her creativity! What wonderful keepsakes you have to record her life thus far! She will so treasure them as she goes through life.
