The Miller Memoirs

Happy Birthday, Amber!
Amber requested two activities for her birthday: The Cheesecake Factory, and Game World. We had so much fun at both locations; however, the highlight of the evening was when Amber got her ears pierced!

Cheesecake Factory

Amber wanted her ears pierced; however, in our home there are two rules a girl must accomplish in order to have this privilege. First, she must be eight; and second, she must demonstrate responsibility for a month. Amber has been working for over a month on reading the scriptures, and practicing her piano without reminders, and she has done a fantastic job! We were thrilled to surprise her on her birthday with her ears being pierced!

We have a tradition where we pass a paper labeled "You Are Special", and write what we love about that child. Here is what was written about Amber:
