I have been very very busy for the last month and I haven't updated my blog because I wanted to do a special blog entry for my Sami Sue who turned 6 on Oct. 5th. I am late but I wanted to do it right. Sami is such a special person, she is spunky and 100% "what you see is what you get". She has a magnetic energy about her. People are often drawn to her and she doesn't even realize it. She can make a friend in seconds and has her heart on her sleeve. She would give to other before herself. She is bright beyond her years and has some amazing logic to the way she things. She is so far from a perfect angel and that is what I love about her. She is very messy and a bit clumsy. She always complains that no one pays attention to her, but it is just she doesn't realize that she is always the center of attention. She has a gift with animals, and they feel that. She is always going up to strays, "saving" insects and such. She is a tough cookie but can't be a whiney hiney at times too. I have no doubt that she will go far in life -- it just can't be any other way with her personality and whit. I won't be surprised if she became a dr. one day...... Oh my Sami Sue, though you have the middle child syndrome, you will always be our beloved baby, you make of laugh, you make us scream, you make our lives complete. We love you baby girl. Happy belated 6th birthday!
Just for teh record, her middle name isn't Sue, it has just been her nickname for as long as I can remember :) Her is a glimps of the last 6 or so years...
So happy to see a healthy baby on the screen at 18 weeks

Sami at a day old

I love this picture from her 1st b-day

At 18 month in TX

Such a Sami pose

1st day of preschool (2 years old)

Jan 2006 -- I used this picture to announce that Sami was going to be a big sister

In Carcasson Aug 2006

The day after Leïla was born -- another Sami pose

Her 3 b-day, we asked for a Sami face

When she was 4.5 -- so photogenic but will only give me 30 secs to shoot

This is so Sami -- with Libby in Tx 2008
