Penny (10) has already written 43 pages of her novel ("front and back!") and there's been a dramatic breakup and a kidnapping. I am, once again, starting from scratch and only on page 6. I think she might publish hers before I publish mine.

Happy 1st Birthday to Miley Cyrus. This year she learned to heel, sit & shake. She ate 2 of my fancy pillows, one pair of Gucci glasses, one pair of Ugg slippers & 10 of my books. She greets me each day by standing up, hugging me and licking my face. We love her so much ❤️
