9 years, 11 months.

Dear Holly,

While on Spring Break last month, we as a family decided to take on the challenge of hiking up and back down Amicalola Falls.

I was prepared to carry you on my back at some point, as it was definitely not a leisurely hike. Or I at least expected you to get too tired, or hungry, or thirsty.

And then we would all have to take a break.

But, no.

You did just fine. You’re turning 10 years old in a week.

I love it that you are old enough now where we can have challenging, yet fun adventures like this as a family- and you can certainly hold your own!

Love,

Daddy
