My Jas....


Today Jasmine turns 10! She is my lil spunky monkey. I love this girl to death. Every year we have made it a tradition to come to Hawaii for Jasmines birthday which is on the 4th of July. We tell her that the fireworks off the beach are just for her. She absolutely loves it and so do the rest of my kids. We camp on the beach the night before and then spend the whole day at the beach swimming and bbq-ing. The night ends with a movie played on this huge screen and then fireworks. Jasmine loves it all! We are out here in Hawaii right now. Jasmine was put into a basketball camp for the weekend. She is very competitive and LOVES sports. No matter if we are in Utah or here in Hawaii, everyone who knows her, knows she loves to play ball and will do whatever they can to get her involved where they are at. What makes it even better, is that she loves it and never lets them down.
Jasmine doesn't only love sports, but she loves her family. She is very protective. If anyone does anything to hurt them, she is always the first one there to protect them. Aunt, uncle, mom, dad, cousins, siblings, grandma, grandpa....she will fight for any one of them. At the same time, she is also very sensitive. She does not like to be brought down. She'll fight her tears til the bitter end, and when she does break down...she breaks down!
I love you Jasmine and I'm grateful that you chose me, to be your mother. It's an honor for me and I adore you. I hope you have a wonderful 10th birthday.!! Ummma from Gabby!!
