Happy Birthday Princess!

Today we will celebrate Maddy Rae's 6th birthday.  Maddy will always have a special place in Papa Frank, Nana, Mimi and Papa Larry's heart.  She is our first grandchild.  Maddy is best described as a happy, smart, assertive child.  She smiles 10 times more often than frowns.  She likes to be in charge, directing how every event is managed.  I bet that she is already working on the seating arrangements for her birthday party. She displays a mothering instinct when dealing with her younger brothers.

This fall, Maddy begins Kindergarten..  Never has a child been so ready.  Maddy hungers for knowledge.  She once asked her Nana to teach her to read, like her Mimi was going to teach her to play the piano.  I am convinced that in a year or so, Maddy will be reading to her brothers. 

Watching her grow the past 6 years can only be described as pure happiness.  We love you Maddy. 

Happy Birthday Princess!
