9 years old.

Dear Holly,

Exactly a week ago for your 9th birthday, you chose to have your birthday dinner at Toke, where you could get some sushi. (I didn’t even know what sushi was when I was nine!)

Then we came back to our house to enjoy Nonna’s homemade strawberry cake you requested.

The birthday celebration will continue this week, as you have requested to go to Build-A-Bear.

You certainly have no shortage of stuffed animals, especially if we are including Warmies.

But, you are still a kid, and I love to watch you enjoy things that are for kids, while you still are one!

Love,

Daddy
