Danielle Lee Tueller

It was six years ago last weekend that I became a mother. What a rewarding responsibility it is to be a mommy. I love Dani so much! I always say it's trial and error with her. She did not come with an owners manual. Dani is a happy busy bee. She is always creating something. One day it might be a gourmet meal of toast and jam. Another day it may be a soup concoction of leaves, grass and mommy's diet coke. Next, maybe a hat out of an old box. On most days her creativity makes me very tired. She will fall asleep mid sentence most nights and wakes up ready to go every morning. Her kindergarten year was a huge success. She reads like a pro and just like her mommy and Grandpa Wilcken is a math wiz. She loves to write, hey..maybe we have a novelist on our hands. She also is a very social little girl. We invited a few (20) of her closest friends to her birthday party last weekend. Good thing mommy made lots of treat sacks because 18 of the friends came. Boy was I tired after that party. Who out there can say they have entertained 18 along with a few extras... a 6 and under crowd for two hours?
