5

Holy smokes Ainsley, the years have flown by. 

This girl, well, she turned 5 today.

Without even asking, the nerve!

She told me that Jesus told her that she could turn 5, so I'm okay with it...sort of.

This girl, who I prayed daily, hourly and sometimes by the minute for is 5.

It seems surreal to me that:

A: she stayed in my bell until full term

B: she's here, real and not some figment of my imagination

C: that K and I were chosen to be her parents.

Regarding item C, I have to tell you that this kid rocks.

She's got compassion and nurturing in spades, she is a major goofball, has a wicked sense of humor, has a will that tests mine like crazy and is just all around awesome.

In the words of K "She's a goober pants."
One of her nicknames is goofball supreme.

She is super goofy, it's awesome.

Have I mentioned before that Lee is obsessed with the movie Pocahontas?
She is, big time.

K and I decided that for her birthday we would try to get her Pocahontas and John Smith.

{She has always asked for the boy to the princess.}

Did you know that they don't sell the Pocahontas/John Smith dolls in stores?

Plus, we don't have a Disney store here.

wah wah wah

K found an awesome deal online.

The above picture was her excitement at getting P & JS.

The below picture is her posing them, she's a hopeless romantic already.

Happy Birthday Lee, we love you more than words could express.
