Katherine Claire Weatherby turns nine today. 

She plans to wake up and have Mickey Mouse chocolate chip waffles and bacon for breakfast.  Most likely will read a little Harry Potter while listening to some tunes on the nano her grandmother give her for her birthday.

The thought is to get to Zoo Atlanta relatively early, before it gets too hot for child or beast, then escape to the cool confines of the High Museum of Art to see the Annie Leibovitz exhibition.  It’s then home for steak dinner, lemon pound cake and chocolate ice cream. And of course open presents which are very pod related this year.

Somewhere along the way we will do measurements.  Already know that she is a whopping 58 inches, or about 6 inches taller than average. 

She’s growing up fast, but will always be my little girl.
