November Thankfuls - Day 8

Today I’m thankful for this sweetheart. I can’t believe she is already 7 years old, I remember the day she was born like it was yesterday. She has turned into such a lovely young lady.

Paiton is sweet and always concerned about others. She doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. She comes home from school and tells me stories like she sat next to the stinky kid today, because no one else would. She can’t stand to see anyone’s feelings hurt.

She is my social butterfly. She loves people and friends. If we have to go an entire day without friends it is dangerous. She loves family and parties. When friends are over they just play and play. She is friends with everyone and nice to all types of people. She is rarely ever in trouble and always makes great choices.

She is a great student. Her teacher loves Paiton and constantly tells me how wonderful she is. She is always helpful in class and again nice to everyone. I received this email from her teacher the other day:

“I also wanted to let you know how much I adore Paiton. She is such a sweet girl. She is very diligent in her school work and sets a great example for her classmates. Thank you for raising such as wonderful daughter!”

As you can imagine, I had proud mama tears that day. She is exactly what you want your children to be.

She loves horses and anything that has to do with horses. She still takes horse riding lessons every week. She draws horses on everything…and I mean everything. She can raddle off a bazillion facts about horses, and when she sees a horse she knows exactly what kind of horse it is. She is also very athletic and excels in soccer and baseball.

She is a delight to be around. She is always happy, out to have a good time person. She is easy going and will go along with just about anything.

I’m so thankful to have her. She has changed my life for the better. I’m so proud of the person she has become and look forward to her bright future. I’m so proud to call her my daughter.

*Any way I do this is going to make it seem like one child is my favorite. I wanted to give each of them a special day in the November Thankfuls, but debated on which one would come first. I’ve decided I will do each of them on the day of their birth. Because today is the 8^th and Paiton’s birthday is the 8^th, her day is today. The other two will have their November Thankfuls on their day.
