For reals. Not like the past three months that she's been telling everyone she's ten. But now she actually IS ten. On Friday (the day before her birthday) we had a Branch Beach Blitz, so we let her invite her friend Marin. I brought cupcakes to share with everyone. It was nice to be able celebrate with some friends from the branch since they are our family here. Afterward, Marin came to our house, and Carly had her first late-night (our version of a sleep-over). They played M*A*S*H, ate candy and watched a movie until 10 and then Marin's Dad came to pick her up.
On Saturday (her actual birthday) we picked up her friend Kelsea and brought her to our house for a special birthday lunch - mac and cheese and a birthday ice cream cake.
I found a list that Carly made a while ago (I think she may have made this list with Kaylie). It really describes the type of person Carly is. Not because she's perfect at all of these things, but because she really has a strong desire to be good and choose the right.
