Dude, She's OLD

Happy birthday to my beloved oldest daughter! Caroline is 10 today. Eek. I am old. 10 is old. I REMEMBER being 10. It involved a lot of back talk and singing of Barbara Mandrell songs. She has spent much of the day complaining about how much her birthday sucks. We are leaving on vacay in a few days so I'm doing laundry, cleaning, packing, ect. She is PO'd that the rules of the house still apply and she is not the queen of the world. All in all, she's a sweet kid who is developing the life skills of shopping and golf. She's also a crazy White Sox fan. . .she actually shed tears last week out of fear that her beloved Nick Swisher might get traded. So happy birthday Caroline Rebekah. You've got 8 more years of free-loading and then you're out on your ear.

Happy Birthday Caroline!
Just remind mom on vacation how boring your birthday was and that you need a special day on vacation that is all about YOU!!!
How's it feel to finally be into the double digits? That's the only thing I remember about turning 10 - was in the double digits :-)

Happy Birthday! Don't you believe one word your mom says about being out on your ear in 8 years. She'll be crying her eyes out the minute you leave.
