It's funny that thing babies do when they grow up. Women in waiting rooms warn you about it, books prepare you for it, sometimes you even think you notice it. And then there it is, she's 10.
Our Jazzy is 10.
A decade old. Double figures. Two hands full. Indeed.
Happiest birthday Jazzy bear our archer.
We adore you.

Doesn't it fly by sooo fast! A friend once told me that the only way to slow down growing up was to breathe in and out slowly so you can be fully present in every moment of the grand adventure. Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteToo fast. But what a grand adventure indeed. xx
DeleteIt goes way way too fast!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your archer Jazzy!!XXX
¡¡¡¡¡Feliz cumpleaños !!!!!
ReplyDeleteANd you look at her and think "Is that my child? Did I make her? Is she that baby that I carried around and burped on my shoulder like... yesterday?". I still can't understand that I have three children. That I have given birth to three wonderful human beings. It is so surreal. And still the most natural and obvious thing in the world. I mean that I actually did this. Happy birthday to Jazzy. Hands up! Don't shoot me! I was just about to clap my hands in celebration. Yaaaayyyyy!

ReplyDeleteHappy Happy 10 to your Jazzy! I love that she's into archery, she would get along very well with my Jimmy..x
ReplyDeleteHappy B'day Jazzy :)
ReplyDeleteSo cool that she does archery! When I was a kid, my grandpa got my brother a bow and arrow set and we did it in the yard for probably only a summer. I should ask him if he still has it!
ReplyDeleteAwful. The babies not being babies thing. Of course it is totally ace too. So blooming conflicted. This parenting gig... so many contradictions, so much ambivalence.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Jazzy!!!
Where to buy the bow and arrow?
ReplyDeleteWe bought one from the gun shop in Ballarat.
DeleteAnd the other from OzHunters in Melbourne.
