Avery Mac



Happy birthday to our sweet Avery! She is eleven years old today, going on twenty-five. I thought I would post eleven things I love about Avery, but there are WAY more than eleven, so here are just a few. Avery is beautiful. Avery is smart - sometimes too smart for her own good. Avery is hilarious! She is so responsible and helpful. She is such a great big sister. Her little brothers and sister adore her. Everyone is drawn to her. She is a leader. She is a good example. She is energetic and excited about life. She is sassy and feisty. She loves to learn and absorbs information like a sponge, then she can spit it back out at you in great detail. She loves animals and knows a lot about them. She is sensitive and kind. She has a beautiful singing voice. She has funky dance moves. She is creative and artistic. She is forgiving. She is strong. (there's a lot of fight in that little body.) She is brave. She made me a mother. These, and so many more, are the reasons we love our Avery Mac! Happy Birthday Princess!
