Annika, oh Annika


Annika is 8 today!

She shares her birthday with Harry Potter. I remember when she was born, I was working at an investment firm in Georgetown. I like saying it that way to make it sound like I was doing something important, but I was the temp receptionist for the summer and no one ever called or came to the front desk, so I pretty much read books and/or the Internet all day. Anyway I checked The Blogs constantly around the time of her arrival, and then she didn't have a name for a few days. Eventually Hannah christened her She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

Anyway. Annika is super awesome and I am super sad we will miss her baptism. But fortunately for us, we got to hang out with her a few weeks ago when we were staying at my parents' house and she came for her Grandma's Birthday Sleepover.

I'd like to close with one of my favorite pictures, which is Annika at age 3 on her mom's rollerblades.


Hope you have a great day, Annika!
