She officially made me a mommy 2,921 days ago.
It’s hard to believe. Where is my baby going?
In honor of Baylee's birthday, I have written out 8 things that make her so very special. (I can't wait until she turns 100 so I can say 100 things!)
8. You are a kind-hearted young lady that values human life. You know everyone doesn’t need to be the same and you find beauty in everyone. The bottom line is, everyone has a heart and everyone was created by the Lord…you remind us often of those important things none of us should lose sight of (thank you).
7.You are the best sister EVER! The boys really don’t know how good they have it. One thing they do know though is how amazing of a friend you are to them. You always have time to be with them and make them feel cared for. I know I tell you this a lot. It’s a 100% fact!
6. You have a very nurturing spirit. You like to take care of others and do it in such an excellent, careful way. If God blesses you with children Baylee, you’ll be the best mom around. You value family tradition, order, love, and organization to name a few. In fact, you are embracing your role as a lady already and take the traits seriously. You like to be a helpmate to the men in our home. You enjoy putting together meal plans and shopping for them. You enjoy cooking, trying new recipes, setting the table, and much much, much more. WOW!
5. You are intelligent (and never boast about it) and have a great passion for learning. You know how to think out of the box. It’s never a battle with you to do your homework or to get you to read. It’s such a blessing. I think you’ll be a lifelong learner.
4. You are creative in many ways. You love the arts (and crafts) but also in making the home a peaceful, beautiful place to be. You enjoy decorating tables, rooms, planning themed parties/playdates, etc. It’s fun to be a partner with you!
3. You are blossoming and letting more people into your world of a fun-loving personality. We’ve always seen it at home but many didn’t see that side of you unless they were here, at home, with us. Now many are getting to see this talkative, personable, fun-loving Y-O-U because you are allowing/inviting them. Praise God. Keep it up!
2. You are seeking the things of the Lord. By yourself without any prompting you read His word most days and then share it with us in what you are learning. It is beautiful. It’s like having a sister in Christ in the home (as well as a fantastic daughter). Keep your light shining!
1. You are a ‘saver’. And although sometimes Daddy and I get on you about it, we think it’s cute and have made it lighthearted. Although that means your drawers, purses, treasure trunk, and more are always busting at the seems, you also are great with money and special treats. As an example, remember when you earned your very own box of Thin Mints (Girl Scout cookies) and you would eat ½ a cookie some days? That box lasted for half a year! Now that’s amazing self-control that Daddy and I don’t have…it’s also because you have that “saver” type personality. It’s one of those things that makes you irresistibly adorable!
You’ve totally wanted this chipmunk Webkinz for along time and were convinced you were going to get it. Right when you saw the package, you were flipping out. It was hilarious!
