Miriam Turned 8

I know I haven't said much about Miriam's birthday. It's because I'm still in shock. Eight is big.

Amy needed some pictures for Miriam's baptism (I don't know why), so Timothy took her out today and snapped a bunch. More will follow. For now--here is some info about Miriam as per our conversation at supper.

Favorite color(s): pink and purple

Favorite food(s): strawberries and taco salad

Favorite book(s): Hardy Boys and Trixie Beldon

Favorite song: I Am a Child of God

Favorite toy: Chelsea (her stuffed dog)

Favorite activity(ies): playing games with Dad and going on outings with Grandma Y.

What Miriam wants to be when she grows up: an animal rescuer like Diego

I'm always surprised by how little changes. Her favorite colors, song, and food has been the same since she could talk. Crazy.

I love that girl!

PS Yes, that is the dress Kami made Miriam. I keep meaning to take a bunch of pics of all the girls but haven't done it yet.
