FOUR

Four has been the number on my mind this week. My little, baby girl has turned four this week. Can you believe that? I simply cannot. I feel like it was just yesterday I was meeting her for the first time and now she's this little person. A little lady, who loves her baby doll and coloring and anything princess and cooking in the kitchen with mommy. Where did my baby go? Wasn't she just born a few minutes ago?

She has had quite the celebration. First a party for her friends to come to. Then it was the special snack at school on her actual birthday. Then it was to Chuck E. Cheese and out to eat. And the grand finale was today. The conclusion to the celebrating. A party for her family. Let me say this...I'm exhausted. And Daughter? Is she tired? No ma'am. Still awake with excitement and energy at 9:00 p.m. I mean, I feel like I should have done endurance training to have been ready for all this celebrating. But I would do it all again to see the enjoyment and happiness on her face. Priceless!

To my precious girl - I love you more than words. You have made my life so incredibly wonderful! Your laughter is so contagious and your smile brightens my day. I love watching you interact with your brother and teach him how to play with toys or roll a ball or clap his hands. Your Daddy and I are so proud of you and are so thankful for you! Love- Mama
