She’s 8, she’s 8 – our baby girl is 8 today!  And lest ANYONE forget it, she’ll remind you.  In fact, she’s been reminding people for weeks!!!

I have to go make no-bake cornflake peanut butter cookies to take to her class, then we have to attend the “Star Student” ceremony, as DD#2 has been chosen as this month’s star student for her fifth grade class.  Once done, I may have a minute or two to collect myself before I have to start cooking her BIRTHDAY dinner (smoked pork chops, macaroni & cheese, green beans, rolls) and somewhere in there, I have to whip up a batch of brownies, then frost and decorate them!  I feel like the Mad Hatter with so many places to go and be and whoa … will I get my head chopped off if I forget something??!!

My baby is 8 today!  I don’t know whether to celebrate her milestones or sit in the corner and cry over her disappearing childhood!
