Has it been seven years already???

Not long ago, Biffy had a baby:
I used to babysit her in my dorm room while trying to avoid the horde of girls on my floor that seemed to congregate in my room whenever Taylor was there (knock knock knock "Did we hear a baby?!?!)
Now Taylor is all grown up:
well, ok. . . she'll be seven on Friday but she's so dang smart and talented that she seems like she's all grown up. In any case, she's not a baby anymore.
Taylor is already an accomplished athlete, participating in both gymnastics and BMX racing. . .
. . . and winning!!! She has been racing since she was five. I got my training wheels off when I was five!!!
She's in first grade but doing second grade work. (Her teachers may have gotten a clue from the fact that she was reading books such as "The Chronicles of Narnia" on her own when she was in kindergarten.) Several months ago, she announced out of the blue "I'm 5 and six quarters!" Biffy and I had to think for a minute and then realized, why yes-- that does equal six and a half!! Seriously, how many six year olds understand fractions that well??? She's no normal kid. . .
She's SUPER TAYLOR!!!!
Happy Birthday, Super Taylor!!!
