5 years ago today, I got to meet our three miracle babies. I cannot believe they are FIVE years old today. Every year I say that I can't believe it but five is REALLY big!!! We watched their NICU video this morning with the girls and it is so crazy to look at how big and beautiful they are now and then see their entire head cradled in the PALM of my hand. Being a parent is seriously one of the biggest blessings possible and I really do feel honored and blessed to be able to get to raise these three girls. They are my joy! And I praise God for them every single day.
My Addy girl -
Addy has grown so much this year. In inches and in WHO she is! She is currently almost 4 inches taller than her sisters and is the tallest in her whole class! Poor girl has growing pains all the time! She used to be very shy...and can still be reserved at times. But now she is the first to say hi to people or answer questions or whatever! She LOVES learning...LOVES school..loves rules :) and knowing and doing what's right. She's my black and white girl. :) And tries hard at everything she does and strives for perfection. She gets frustrated easily if she can't be the best or can't do something right away. Addy is an observer...and then figures it out...and then succeeds with flying colors. I am in awe at her love for books and watching her figure out how to read. It is such a cool thing to see. Addy loves reading, loves helping me around the house. She loves pretty much all food and truly cares for her sisters. She cherishes one on one time...and any sport. She has quite the imagination when it comes to playing with her barbies or with her sisters. They play "theatre" a lot....and "bride." Addy - I love you SO SO SO much. Never forget that!
Em - I can't believe I have ANOTHER girl I love so so much too!!! Emily YOU are so special to me to in your own little way! I LOVE YOU honey! Em is such a sweetheart. Just today she was so polite with trying to share her new presents with her sisters. She would ask to borrow the doll's hair dryer while saying please and waiting patiently. She doesn't like to stir up trouble (most of the time) :) and is just a genuine sweetie. I am so thankful for her encouragement and her smiles. She will often randomly tell me I'm the best mom ever or run by and give me a quick kiss. Em loves to color and lately loves to play with boys at school (oh boy!) She is very into dresses right now and picking out her clothes. She loves just being silly and goofy. I love how that can get her giggling like crazy. Em loves to play "bride" with her sisters too and is usually the one who gets to be the bride. :) Em also loves school ...I am so proud of her and so thankful she is my baby girl. She is such an encouragement and such a blessing. I love you forever Emily Ann!!
And my sweet Hailey Grace - Happy birthday honey!! You are FIVE! Five is SO big! When I see you I still see my tiny little baby girl....but when I think of age 5, that's like a big KID! Can't believe it! Hailey is so fun. She has quite the little personality. She has figured out how to raise and lower her eyebrows with expression and can be so dramatic, especially when she adds her hand movements. So funny. :) She still loves to tease people and make people laugh or make people chase and tickle her. She is quite the little communicator too. Every night, when we put the girls to bed, we always crawl into bed with each of them individually to pray and have some individual chat time. Hailey could talk ALL night long when we do this. I love that about her. Hailey is also very into coloring and into playing "bride." She is usually the groom! Hailey is my snuggler in the morning. She is also my particular organizer girl. :) She loves organizing her desk and "organizing her bed." She likes her things 'just so.' Hailey is becoming very independent too. She loves getting dressed by herself, is trying to tie her shoes by herself, etc. etc. She is a joy to know and love.
We are so so blessed...happy birthday girlies. You are loved!
