...my little brown bear, Taryn. She is my second child and she turned 9 today! My husband has always called himself Papa Bear and called me Mama Bear, Hannah is Sissy Bear, Naomi is Baby Bear, Little Marco is Bear Cub and Taryn is Brown Bear. We even have a dog named Oso which means bear in Spanish. LOL Anyway, it's just a little endearment for the Bear Family.
We will be celebrating her birthday with friends and family on Saturday, but I took her out today and just had a blast spending time with her. We went to see HSM 3. This was a big deal for her because Hannah has not even seen it yet. I let her pick where we'd go for lunch and she chose Pick Up Stix which is a Chinese type fast food place. After that, we stopped at See's candies and when they found out she was celebrating a birthday, they loaded her up with free samples and even a "SEE"gar. It was a giant, solid chocolate that looked like a cigar. She gave it to her daddy and they thought it was funny that she had a SEEgar.
9 Things I Love About Taryn:
1. She has a tender heart.
2. She is very funny.
3. She's a great conversationalist.
4. She's loyal.
5. She's competitive.
6. She's a good cook.
7. She's a girlie girl.
8. She likes to dance and sing.
9. She makes the best Senseo coffee ever!
