Dear Anna,
This past week you turned three years old.
That smile in the photo above says it all.
Here’s a bit about you right now:
You love tomatoes.
You love barbies – specifically Disney princess Barbies.
You love dressing up like the princesses.
You love pink & purple and sparkles and lipstick and nail polish.
You love your parents, cousins, aunts & uncles, Grandmas & Grandpas and Katie and Kim and Emma.
You love your brother, big time.
You love to sing, songs you’ve heard and songs you make up.
You love your school and your teacher reports that you are a little ray of sunshine.
You love chicken noodle soup (especially the noodles).
You still love apple juice best, with lemonade a close second.
You love your ballet & tap class.
And we love you so, so much.
Love Mom

Yah Anna! Here’s to three. We love you too.
Happy Birthday to “our” little Anna,:) I love the pictures of her today. Time is going by so quickly from this viewpoint in TX. You have two wonderful children to give purpose and meaning to your life each day. We are so glad they share you with us, and you share them in pictures I’ve learned so much from you, (except can’t get the digital part!) Have a blessed day.
Happy Birthday, Anna!
