8 is GREAT!

Here's to Miriam who celebrates 8 great years with us! She has put up with a lot in her short life. We've dragged her to Asia three separate times, moved her from an island to the continent to the other side of the continent. I'm not sure how many different houses she has lived in (but I think its 7). And through it all, she is kind, generous, and loving. (She got two zhou zhou pets for her birthday and immediately gave one to Gwyn.) We didn't know it at first, but she is a miracle (parents can be slow). We love you Mimsy! Thanks for letting us be your family!

8?! Yikes. I need to get a new watch.

Happy Birthday Miriam! Hopefully you'll get to spread some of that 8 year old magic over on our side of the country some time this year.

I love Miriam. We love Miriam. She is a woman of my own heart. She loves the swap shop as much as I do.
