Today Delaney had her first "girlfriends" movie date - she met 5 of her school friends at the movie theatre to see Soul Surfer. After that they were going to eat supper at a fastfood restaurant a few doors down, then shop at Old Navy, Aeropostle, Claire's and Borders. She had earned some money over here, and was so excited to have a chance to use it. When I took her inside the theatre to meet her friends (and one mom who was overseeing this outing) it was almost too much for me. In the last few months she has grown to nearly my eye level, and definitely is moving into the next phase of growing up.
Like the song says "Where did that little girl go to?" - and I know that the next few years will fly by way too fast!
