Jeanie's 9th birthday was all about tennis. She had been taking lessons for a while and wanted to play with her friends! She had also been begging for a kitten for a couple of years. Noticing how sweetly she took care of Letty and how much she wanted a pet of her own, we decided to adopt "Dr. Moons" from the shelter. He is seriously the sweetest cat in the world.
She spent many days dressing her cat in her American Girl Doll clothes and singing him lullabies. They are both very content with this relationship! :)
For Jeanie's 10th birthday, she asked to go on her "mom and dad" trip to Charleston. Celebrating 10 years of Jean-Margaret is very easy to do. She is a delightful child who can usually always find the good in situations. When she was not able to go to camp (due to asymptomatic covid...but a positive test result) she decided to put a tent on the back porch and pretend to camp that week. It wasn't the adventure she hoped for, but she kept a smile on her face. Charleston was all about exploring, eating, and shopping. We took a ghost tour carriage ride and she spent about an hour browsing the cutest little bookshop downtown. She got to visit her oldest friend, Ginny, and the awesome aquarium. She got the gift she wanted...her very own surfboard. I cannot believe all this child does. She is brave, smart, sporty, and a REALLY good big (and little) sister, and cat mommy. We love you Jeanie!
Now that I have updated her last two birthdays, it is now time for her 11th birthday this weekend :)
Maybe I will post that before she goes to college. ;-)
