What are we doing tomorrow?

Although she doesn't do this anymore, this was the question that Hannah asked everynight as I would tuck her into bed.  I still "tuck her in" (turn off her light, ask how  her life is, etc...), but we don't have quite the same routine anymore.  As a little girl, though, she asked this every night because she needed time to think about the day.  She is a planner.  She likes to know what to expect.

Hannah is not the first born in our family, but since there are 8 years between her and Ryan, she is a first born of sorts.  She is in a position of being the baby and  an only child all at the same time.  She is being raised in a house by herself since K'Lynn and Ryan are both our on their own.  She is being raised much differently than K'Lynn and Ryan were.  She is the only kid and therefore we are able to give her more than K'Lynn and Ryan had.  She is involved in almost everything at school- sports, FCA, academics, etc...  She is this odd combination of both K'Lynn, Ryan, Kyle and me.   She is atheletic like Ryan and Kyle.  She is smart like K'Lynn, but is able to balance that with life like Ryan always did.  She is sensitive like I am, K'Lynn too.  She loves music like Ryan does, and loves clothes like K'Lynn does.  She reminds me of myself at her age in someways, but completely not in other ways.   She loves life and isn't prone to anxiety or depression.  She loves those that she loves very deeply and has little patience for some others.  She is funny and enjoys telling silly jokes.  She keeps secrets well and is a good friend.  I want to be like her when I grow up.

I wish I knew what we were doing tomorrow...whatever it is, she is going to do it well.  I love that kiddo, in case you can't tell.
