Mimi a 10 ans!

Jayzus... 10 years already since that little fist punched the air, out of the C section, prompting the obstetrician to ask you to take it easy. 

How incredibly aware of your environment you've been from an early age. 
You looked so serious for the first couple of months, taking in the world around you with your big saucer eyes, and that little frown that said that you were reserving your judgment until later, after you had gathered more information. 

You've grown a lot since. I know what you are thinking, but don't worry about the height. It's just centimeters. Your growth is measured in other units, and it is tremendous. 

You are so in tune with the world around you that it is I, big bozo, who learns from you. 
You show tremendous maturity when it comes to relationship intelligence. 
Especially if we use your brothers for bench-marking purposes... 

I am so delighted your enjoyed your birthday.

Enjoy your first watch. And your first real writer's pen (no, it doesn't run out, you just pop in a new cartridge!) And your Game of Life and Monopoly with credit cards (sort of annihilates what was truly fun about Monopoly, the dipping in the bank while the others were not watching...)

Mum and Dad, and Pepe and Nana, and the bros love you very much. 

There is only one Mimi.
And you are she.
