I cannot believe my little Trevi turned 7 years old yesterday!

I remember when she used to look exactly like Spongebob Squarepants (blue eyes, big smile, with a gap between the teeth).

I love the way she is so dramatic! After almost every present she would declare: “That’s the prettiest headband I’ve ever seen” or “That’s the greatest gift I’ve ever gotten (about a wallet).”

She is still a passionate little girl, but now, more and more, she has been using her powers for good. She made a meal for me and Debbie the other day at “The Trevi Cafe” which included apple sauce, granola bar, and a cup of water.

We are so grateful to have this little girl in our lives!
