Even though six does sound so old to me, you are still a little girl. My little girl. You love dolls, dress up, books, coloring, and make believe. You love to perform on stage. We can always planned to be entertained by your love for Frozen songs or any new song you’ve learned recently.

Your best friends are your siblings, but you especially love playing with Judd for hours in far away lands. We know that you live in your own little world at times, but its okay because they all know you there.

I am so thankful for you, my sweet daughter. I pray that the things that I am trying to teach you in these early years will stay with you for a lifetime. You amaze us daily with your love for people, your caring heart, and your prayers. The Lord has gifted you with an amazing prayer life at a mire age of 6. I pray that you will never loose the desire to talk and learn from your Savior. He is the only one that can save you. He is ever present and friend at all times.   Mommy and Daddy, can see your mind starting to wrap around the concepts that we have been teaching you since birth. We pray that you choose to embrace them and use them to turn a bad attitude into a thankful one, or a hurtful situation into a reason to pray.

I know the lessons I have learned from you in six years: You have taught to me to enjoy creativity, to not see everything in black and white, that its ok to skip through life worry free sometimes and to appreciate each moment.
