Well, that does it. All of my kids are now in double-digits. MissNine is now MissTen, and I will have to once again get used to typing a new name for her here. I will also have to get used to her growing up, a bittersweet parent thing. At least I know this, from experience: she will always be HERSELF. She will grow, she will change, but she is always going to be who she is inside today, until triple-digit day at least.
And that is indescribably fab.
This is what she had to say about it.
