Twenty-One Reasons to Celebrate

Behold, unto you will be born a child......Oops, wrong birth.
My daughter Brandy was born September 9th and while we often will lovingly refer to her as "the child from hell" she has been one of the best occurrences in my life. She has shaped much of whom I am, just as I have shaped part of whom she is. Following are a few of the reasons I love and adore her so much (in no particular order):

Contagious rolling laughter when something really amuses you
Beautiful green-blue eyes
Intelligence
Independent
Photographer's Eye
Lunch Dates
Kind Heart
Cynical
Loyal Friend
Great Traveling Partner

Quick (and evil) wit-"Stick with the jokes you don't intend to make, Mom"

Long finger nails (how do you manage that?)
Lovely Smile
Ethical
