She’s 9. Art Party Fabulous.

She’s 9. She lives THE life, wild beyond my imagination. After talking her down from a limo ride and a party at the Four Seasons, I convinced her to have a PlayDate with friends to do art, ice cream sundaes and just be girls. After insisting they “toast” (with only the best sparkling grape juice) we planned a fabulous party and made it happen.

What’s so special about 9? Everything. Last single digit. School is still fun and play in third grade before the big fourth grade year. Life is but a bowl of cherries…each day is sweeter than the next. Mia has grown leaps and bounds into this amazing artist, who wants to help with her sisters and people in her community. She blossomed even more so with her fun loving and happy-go-lucky persona that radiates and everyone loves to be around. She’s a world traveler and hopefully she’ll see it all one day.

Nine is fine and life is good. Happy Birthday Mia!
