five years old

My darling girl. Happy birthday. You've grown into a little person this year. We love your joy and energy.

At five years old, you have a vivid imagination! You love your little sister. You love to sing and play with your friends. Your favorite foods are watermelon, apples, pancakes, and lasagna. You love all things Disney and are beyond stoked to go visit Mickey and friends in a few short weeks. You are cuddly and loving. You love to play outside! You ask for candy and the iPad every night. Your favorite colors are pink and purple. You love to bake and help us in the kitchen. You weigh 36 lbs and are 43 inches tall. You had to get glasses this year and picked out some styling purple specs all by yourself. You can count to 100 with little help.

Bun-Bun and your blankie are ever out of sight. You can get ready all by yourself and love to be a helper. You like to teach Keller how to do things. You especially love to build forts and play hide and seek with your sis. You've gotten a little braver this year and aren't as afraid of big slides - yet it does take you a little while to get comfortable doing new things. You can carry on a conversation with just about anyone. You are really enjoying preschool at Messiah.

You are fierce, Evie dear. Your sensitive spirit keeps mommy and daddy in check and we love you for it. You've captured our hearts. You are kind and constantly remind us how much you love us. Sweet Evie, we love you to the moon and back.
