Twenty One Today!

I've done it, I've raised from seed to adulthood another human being!  Today Maddie turns 21 so what better than 21 photos of her through the years :)

Here she is one day old, what a cutie :)  It was the hottest day of the year and they couldn't get her temperature up so she was wrapped up in layers and layers...she's no different now and really feels the cold!

Her first trip on the channel tunnel :) This was back in the day when she loved going on holidays.

Being a beautiful bridesmaid for our friend Sara :) It was her first time but now she's been a bridesmaid five times in total!

Look at that cheeky face! She loved being outside and naked, now she hates both!

I think her dream even now is to be a pirate!

Reception year at school :)

An after breakfast nap and Pitcher and Piano with her beloved Barney, she still has him now!

Nothing changes, she's still a giggler :)

Look at her lovely eyes, she likes to keep them hidden behind glasses now :(

Garson Farm where she picked the winner in the pig race :)

Christingle, I miss it now that she's older :(

One of my favourite ever photos of her :)

And another one, taken outside the Portland Heights hotel as the sun went down :)

Here she is, sweet sixteen!

Still giggling and looking forward to an elephant hunt in London :)

More giggles, I have hundreds of photos of her laughing :)

And the odd funny face (that's a lie because I have hundreds of funny face photos too!)

She the most intelligent person I know, bright as a button :)

She works hard *insert hysterical laugh*

And she is special :)

So happy 21st to my daughter and my best friend....Sam.

Every day you make me smile, laugh and want to do silly things.

I hope you have a fabulous day darling

Love mum xxx
