Maci is 6!!!

Maci, my first baby, is 6 years old! That makes me feel so old. She looks every bit of 6 too. She's looking more and more like a little lady and less and less like a little baby. Her sweet cheeks are all but gone. She's so smart and so sweet. She is very giving and generous (well most of the time) She has had such a huge year. A great big kindergartner. Wow! Well, her six years have blessed us tremendously. We completely adore this beautiful little girl.
On her birthday, in true Maci fashion, she picked a girls' day with Payton and me over a big birthday party. I wasn't all that surprised, but it blessed my heart that she preferred being with me and her sister to a huge group of friends and family. I loved every minute of my time with her. We started her day with a lunch downtown with Alan. We then went over to the Galleria and got manicures and ears pierced. Maci was all alone on that one. Payton changed her mind right at the last minute. Very funny! Well, Maci was very brave, especially for her. She didn't shed a tear. Her new earrings are adorable. They make her look even older. After checking out every children's store in the galleria and having cookies, we got Alan from work and headed home for dinner. On the way home, Alan decided that we just had to have some ice cream. So, we did. Then we went home and had pizza, popcorn, and watched Bambi (Maci's pick.) After the movie we had birthday cake and then tucked our big ole 6 year old in bed. She informed us that this was the very best birthday ever. I would have to agree. It is very sweet to get to spend days like that with your family. Happy birthday to our beautiful first! Maci we love you dearly!
