Today I am thankful for my youngest daughter, Jamie. Jamie came to us in the fall of '85 and completed the Floyd family. I think she came into the world with a huge smile on her face. Never one to be shy or timid - no with Jamie, you had to worry about someone snatching her. She never knew a stranger. To nab her, all you had to do was offer her a kitty and she would follow you anywhere. Jamie was an easy child to parent - did what she was told and pushed herself. You never had to get her to push to do better, she put enough pressure on herself. With her, you had to explain that not always getting an A was okay. She only got one B her entire high school career - and shouldn't have got that, but that's another story. Jamie went into the field of math education and I had my doubts about that - but she has such a way with children, that she really needed to work with them in some capacity. She has turned into an wonderful math teacher! Jamie, being the baby, holds a special place in my heart!
