K is 4!


Little miss K turned 4 a few weeks ago. She is really growing up. I love the funny faces she makes. I love her sense of humor (her favorite punchline is, "hot baloney, Petey"--we have no idea where that came from!). I love the twinkle in her big, beautiful eyes. I love what a little mother she is (she tries to nurse her dolls). I love that she loves books and every time I sit down to nurse Julia, Katie is there with 3 books for me to read. I love that she loves Primary and preschool. I love that she wants to help me cook. I love that I don't worry about her heart every time I look at her. I love that she recognizes that she has a "stripe" down her chest and that her friend Audrey has a "stripe" and that our next door neighbor Beckham has a "stripe". I love, love her strong spirit. Happy 4th bday, miss K.

Has it really been 4 years? I remember that time so vividly. After all that Katie survived, and the stuff we were going through at the same time, life is a miracle that I will never take for granted again.

Happy Birthday Katie! I can't believe she's already 4. I just remember her as a sweet little girl in nursery who wanted me to hold her lots. :)

Great picture! I am glad she is so healthy and that your whole family is doing well. I loved our time in Austin doing playgroups and preschool back when our bigger kids were littler than Katie...time goes quickly.

Oh she is beautiful! I love her too and will treasure the summer with you, your family when Katie was 1!

Happy Birthday Katie! Isn't it strange to see her so big? You know, 4 really is really old.

She sounds every bit as adorable as she was when she was 2. Happy Birthday!

Katie has been a fighter from the beginning and I'm so glad to hear that she is still full of it!
