A Four Year Old Girlie

My older girlie turned four last week!

So thankful to be with family to celebrate. Birthday pancakes are so much more fun with cousins!

Deeply involved in “Go Fish.”

Girl cousins to church in matching outfits… thanks to Grammi!!!!! Also, the whole congregation sang to her… must have been so embarrassing but she held it together!

Then to Chuck E. Cheese’s for a little special fun…

We had the joy of celebrating with our families at Grandma and Grandpa’s house in the evening.

I whipped up this simple little beauty for her…

And she might have spit on it as she was blowing out the candles. Woops!

She has been SO much fun lately.

One of her middle names means “Cheerful bringer of joy” and that is definitely who she is! She skips half the places she goes, makes goofy faces, sings made-up songs and just bubbles over with happiness (most of the time). She adores her baby sister and helps me take care of her and watch out for her. She loves to write her name. And paint. And do craft projects. One of her favorite things is making cards and delivering them. She loves to give things away, both as gifts and things she doesn’t need anymore. She has the best giggle in the world and will ask to be tickled again and again and again when we tuck her into bed at night.

Three was great. Four is going to be greater!

She is such a gift to me.

Happy Birthday Sweet N!
