Raelyn turns SIX!

Raelyn Kay,

Six years ago I held you for the very 1st time. A little girl, a bundle of pink, a mini-me in more ways than I like to admit at times. I remember that day like it was yesterday. Never did I dream that I would be blessed with such a sweet little girl and then you came along. I had big dreams for you. I have visions of dolls and kitchen sets, tea parties and dress up clothes. You love all of those things and more.


You are a little Mom. You adore your younger siblings and are always trying to take care of them. You have attitude and charm and everyone that meets you just loves you. You love school. You come home daily with stories of the things you learned and the friends you played with. You are sure to tell Dad & I what we need to do with your notes, papers and other various things that come home. You have a very good memory and we have to be very careful to only promise you things we know we are sure we can fulfill.


You love to sing. This year you are in music class at school and you love it. Ms. Earls tells me weekly how much she enjoys having you in her class and how much she loves watching you sing. You sing all the time at home. Your favorite song right now is “You belong to me” by Taylor Swift and you sing the lyrics to it all of the time. The 1st time I heard you sing that song I had to laugh. You are quite the performer and I love to watch you dance and sing around the house


Tonight we celebrated your birthday by going to Chipotle’s and then coming home and having cake and ice cream. You were so excited and couldn’t wait to get home after school to open your presents and then go out to eat. Tomorrow night you are having a pajama party with your two best friends and I can’t wait to see you have fun with them.


I look at you and smile. You are so sweet and I am so proud to be your Mother.


Happy 6th Birthday sweet girl!


Love,

Mommy

After we opened presents, we went out for Raelyn's birthday dinner! It's been tradition in our house for a very long time that the birthday child (or adult) gets to pick where they want to go. Raelyn decided on Chipotle which everyone was happy about! We LOVE that place:-)
