Six! She was just 18 months old.

Here are a few of Mimi's latest craves...

• High School Musical and Hannah Montana. (of course!)

• Swimming. Where there is water, you will find Mimi.

• Singing and Dancing. She loves her CD player with all the custom CD's her Dad makes for her. At any given moment I'll hear her singing from her bedroom at the top of her lungs, "oh girls just want to have fun", or "tommorow, tommorow, I love ya, tommorow"!

• Being big sister. She already asks me if she can begin babysitting "the kids". We'll give her a few more years for that.

• Responsibility. Give her a task and she will glady and proudly accomplish it well.

• Grandparents...she can't get enough!

• Acrobatics. Her teacher has told her she needs to go join the circus with her crazy ability to bend her back in half. With her recent accomplishment of completing a back-walk-over, she is now working on a back-hand-spring. YIKES!

• Photo shoots. In the last year Mimi has helped me with a few photo shoots for work. She has become quit a ham in front of the camera.

• Daddy time.

• Red hair. Mimi is known for her red hair.

• Photography. She just received a new camera from Santa for Christmas. You can find her snapping away at pictures of pictures, morbid looking dolls, peoples feet, and every once in a while, a smiling face.

• Art. She takes after her Dad with some remarkable artistic ability. Mimi recently brought home a sheet of paper that announced her artwork was sent onto the national reflections contest. She was most excited about the possibility of a CASH prize! Yipee! I just can't wait to see what she actually drew that was so impressive.

• Really reading. Finally!

• Her bike. Mimi zips around the neighborhood on her flashy orange bike her Dad bought her for her 5th birthday.

• And last but not least, unicorns.
