Believe It Or Not!

She's Five Years Old Today!!!!


Chloe Maria-our joy child
You entered our world at 10:45am five years ago so quietly, so calmly that I begged the nurses to tell me you were breathing okay!
Today you have more energy than I ever thought possible in one child.
Calm and quiet are not adjectives I would use to describe you.
Energetic, vivid, dynamic, emotional, strong, ALIVE are more accurate I think!
Your enthusiasm and excitement in learning challenge me to learn with you.
Your creativity in your drawings and generosity in giving those drawings to others amaze me and humble me.
Your love for your friends and family is so complete.
Your desire to help me and learn to cook and clean with mommy makes me smile.
Your desire to obey and be respectful and love Jesus is beautiful.
Parenting you and shepherding your heart and being your mommy has changed my life forever. 
I love you, Chloe Maria.  Five years has flown by and while I sometimes want to stop the clock, I delight to see you developing, learning, growing and becoming a lovely little girl.
Happy 5th Birthday, Princess.  Today we celebrate YOU and how good God has been to bless you and protect you for five wonderful years!

And as is my custom every single year, I pray, "Thank you LORD, for giving her one more safe, healthy year of life!"
