Jasmine

My oh my, 7 years young.  

early morning wake up call on birth day!

mmmm, CAKE

So, here's the deal with Jasmine.  She is not your fluffy, pink, ballet dancing girl.  I tried and failed to get her to be cutesy and girly.  She likes to climb trees, is athletic and likes getting muddy.  She's more street dance than ballet and would rather kick a football than play with dolls.  She LOVES dressing up in costumes and painting and drawing.  She has a fantastic memory (never forgets a face or a name, remembers phone numbers and directions, learnt ASL alphabet in just 3 lessons and could count in Mandarin after just 1 lesson).  She's such a great big sister and is always watching out for Sofia and can change a nappy better than most adults. But above all, she is just so effortlessly cool.  If I were 7 years old I would want to be her friend.  Especially because, at 7, I was definitely not particularly cool.

I just love this girl to bits, even when she is driving me crazy with her messy bedroom and little girl strops.  My feisty, headstrong, unique little girl - who still loves to suck her two middle fingers and curl up against mummy for a cuddle.  *sigh*.
