Happy 4th Birthday Mia Elizabeth!

On a sunny Thursday morning, four years ago today,

48 things about you at 48 months old...






Just Kidding :)

4 things about you on your 4th birthday...

1 Your days... You love to go on "adventures" as you call them but you would choose to stay home over going somewhere.  You like your routine and remind us if we are off track.  You go with the flow and love to help out.  You love to tell us about the weather and what we should do that day based on the weather.
2 Your loves... If we told you you could do anything right now, you would choose to go outside and ride your bike.  You also love.... parties, your dollhouse, Disney princesses and fairies (your favorite is Aurora "because she wears a pink dress"}, your swingset, pink, coloring and painting, soccer, dates with daddy, trying out something new, helping out with chores and projects, baking, crafting, playing on the ipad, your blankie and woobie, and dressing up.
3 Your personality...You are very strong willed and love to be independent.  You love to learn new things.  You can be stubborn and you tell us you are "working on" becoming a better listener.  You might dress girly but you are a sporty outdoorsy girl at heart. You love to create things and ask often to do crafts.  You are very inquisitve and we are amazed at the things you say.  You like to keep busy but also can play quietly by yourself or with your sister.  You like to do whatever mommy and daddy are doing.
4 Your family... You are a loving and protective big sister.  You are very patient with Kayla and you let her follow you around and join in on what you are doing.  You argue over toys but for the most part you two get along great.  You don't like to see her sad, or anyone around you sad for that matter.  You love to have all your family together and keep track of where everyone is and what they are doing.

We love all of you,

just the way you are,

and always encourage you to be yourself :)
