Cami by the Numb3rs

#1 Awesome Cook
2nd teenager in the house
3+ years in braces + more orthodontics when that's over
4 birthdays in her lifetime that she's actually spent at home
5th grade when she won an essay contest sponsored by the Washington Post
6 dozen cupcakes I brought up to Girls' Camp today
7 days overdue in the middle of a hot steamy Baltimore summer
8 lbs. 15 oz. with the cutest rosy cheeks
9-years-old when she finally outgrew her size 6 clothes
10 months old when she got immunized against the chicken pox the old fashioned way (with a case of the chicken pox)
11 small children (at least) who adore Cami and call her by name. One even calls her "My Cami". She's a popular babysitter.
12 years, 11-1/2 months before she finally got her own room
13 years old today and now she can officially read Twilight!

********

Today I drove through this beautiful part of Virginia...



so I could visit my birthday girl at Girls' Camp and drop off some cupcakes to help celebrate.
Happy Birthday Sweet Cami!!!!
We miss you.

  2. Birthday at Girl's Camp. That was always poor Aunt Heather's fate every summer-every birthday. Either at girl's camp or on the road somewhere. Never at home.

    Hope you had a wonderful birthday sweek Camikins!!

    We love you.

  4. What a beautifully, sweet mama you are! Cami sounds pretty awesome, too. Hope she has a wonderful birthday. I, too, will be at Girls Camp on my birthday this year. Probably a little different as a leader, though.
