A Month of Thankfulness - November 10

 A copy from my FB post on Wednesday -  I am so thankful that Tessa came into our lives.  It was a rocky road to her adoption, but what a glorious day it was when she officially became a YAGGIE!

This cutie is 8 years old today! I love that when she comes to the house, she searches for me and always asks what I am doing and if she can help. (For the record...she lasted through washing ONE window on the outside on Monday, then she was done!) She loves going to Barnes and Noble with me so she can look for more Junie B Jones books to read. She loves stopping at DQ for a chocolate cone (and no, Tessa, that doesn't mean that the cone itself is chocolate....it means that the ice cream is chocolate on top of a regular cone). I love that she is such a good big cousin to Lynnlee and plays with her in the family room or in Lynnlee's toy room when she visits her at home. I love that her memory is sharp--that she can remember things, with intricate details, that happened days, weeks, or months ago. I love that she is creative and fun and smart. Papaw and I love you so much, Tessa. Happy 8th Birthday, TessaRoo....have one more fun day celebrating!
