Sugar and Spice and All Things Nice...

It was almost exactly 9 years ago to the minute when my world of bows, glitter, baby dolls and PINK began!  I was already blessed with a little boy and now I would have a sweet little girl to play dress-up with...because everyone knows baby boy clothes are just not as much fun as baby girl clothes.

This amazing little girl's gentle spirit has blessed me everyday since she was born.  Somehow she always knows when I need a hug or a cuddle.  I love my big butterfly with all my heart and I am so proud of the beautiful person that she is becoming.

Everyday I am more amazed with you sweet baby girl, you have such a kind a generous heart... as my grandmother would say, "You are as pretty on the inside as you are on the out!"  Thank you for being my extra arms, you are a wonderful sister and mentor to all of your siblings.  But most of all I love the way you love the Lord and the passion you have when you teach your sisters about Him. I love you more than all of the grains of sand, on all of the beaches, in all of the towns, in all of the countries, in all of the continents in all of the world!

Big Butterflies Letter to Her Future Self:

Dear Feature Me,
I hope that you still like to play with Lego's and American Girl dolls. And I hope you like
Star Wars too.  My favorite thing to do is draw pictures of horses, I hope to be an artist one day.  I love my great parents, going to church, playing with my friends, and soccer.  I hope that you are taking gymnastics and have worked really hard to get good at it.  I also hope that you are still an artist and like to write.

I have been studying my Bible everyday so that I can get closer to God, I hope you are still reading your Bible everyday.  Happy Birthday to you and me.

All of my Love,
Myself


Happy Birthday Sweet Girl you are growing up way to fast.  Thank you for being such an incredible source of strength for your Mama!
