As we were waking up this morning, your daddy and I were talking about three years ago, thinking about the day you arrived. Then, your daddy said one of the nicest things I've ever heard - "She fills a void we didn't even know was there." That is so true. With three kids, we had our hands full. But, God knew better. He knew we had room in our lives and our hearts for one more very special little girl. And now we simply cannot imagine our lives without you.
You are:
Very smart - You can sing your ABCs, recognize numbers up to 12, count to 20...and, we're not sure who taught you all of this stuff. Sure, we read books and count and sing our ABCs, but you must be a little sponge to have learned it all so quickly.
Very strong-willed - It doesn't take long for foot stomping and arm crossing and tears rolling and squawking to happen when things don't go your way. You know what you want, when you want it and exactly how it should be done. Heaven help the person who gets in the way of your vision. For example, you got up this morning ran into the living room and sternly told your brothers, "Boys, it is my birthday. And, I don't need any help opening my presents!"
Very sweet - Oh little girl, you can melt the hardest heart. You have a cute little voice, a sparkle in your eye, and a smile on your face most of the time. And, you are one great snuggler.
Fashion savvy - You love clothes. And accessories. Nothing makes you happier than a reason to wear a pretty dress and tights and fancy shoes and a clippie. Thank goodness you think hand-me-downs are great - it makes you feel special to have your sister and your friends give you their clothes.
It's been three wonderful years, and we can't wait to see what the future has in store. We love you, pixie girl.
