We cant believe it, our little Madison is now a whole decade old! Its gone by so fast and we will treasure all the memories we've had with her as our little girl. She has always been such a good kid. So happy, helpful, kind and considerate. We really dont have many complaints about Madison. It is a good thing she is the oldest, because she is really a good example to all her younger siblings. We know it is a lot of pressure for her, but she steps up and handles it well.
Madison is talented in so many ways. She is artistic, musical, one of the best readers in her school, a wonderful friend who is kind to everyone. I wish I could make friends as easily as she does. She is fun and funny, energetic, outgoing and has an amazing memory. So good of a memory in fact, that we have to watch what we say, because she will recall it later. She definitely cant forget about the time Dad threw her too high and hit her head on the ceiling, or when Mom burnt her ear with the curling iron. I guess she does need to work on forgiveness. But really, she is so tolerant of her little brother and sisters. They get into so much of her stuff, and although she does get frustrated at times, she handles it pretty well. And she is a really big help around the house. We know we can trust her. She is responsible and makes good choices. Even though she is not old enough to officially babysit yet, she does take good care of her brother and sisters when she is asked, and cant wait to be old enough to babysit for real. But she may soon change her mind after it starts happening on a regular basis, so Mom and Dad can go out! She is also very affectionate. Even though she is 10 now, she still cant go to sleep or to school without a kiss goodbye.
I could go on and all about how great it is to have Madison in our family. We know that she will continue to be a wonderful person and do great things in her life. I know I learn so much just being able to be her mother, maybe more than I teach her. The next ten years might take a bit longer to get through, but we are excited to experience all the new memories we will make with her. Happy 10 years Madi!
We love you!
