Katie the helper

My little girl turned 9 yesterday...halfway to the 18 mark. Boy did that fly by. Her grandpa took her fishing yesterday and she is still recovering... I think she got dehydrated and too hot on the pier - she had a great time though! My hubby has my camera right now, so sorry but you will have to wait on pictures of the fishing trip!





Here she is making pine needle syrup - this syrup is sitting in the sun right now. It will be there for about 2 months before it is ready for the cold season.....














Katie is rather fond of Rosilita also :)

















Thank you Lord for 9 wonderful years. We pray that you give us many more with this awesome little girl (who is becoming not so "little" anymore!)
