My Sweet Girl...

Francie is FIVE!! I cannot believe it!! It seems like just yesterday I was wrapping her up in pink blankies and putting her in a baby bjorn!! I would put tiny pink bows in her baby hair and put little ruffle socks on tiny feet!! She was and still is the sweetest thing!! I can't believe I am blessed enough to be her mommy ~I am the luckiest!!

Five years ago....


















Today....























Francie at Five:
~loves to play school... she puts her friends in "time out" and they actually stay there! :)

~still sucks her thumb -what is she supposed to do? She doesn't have any binkies!! (I do though, a whole drawer of sweet girlie binkies!!)

~gets in my bed in the wee morning hours almost every day!! That's ok -because I get to snuggle with her and I adore the way she puts that little arm around me and hugs me and pats my back -it's the BEST way to wake up!!

~loves to wear my black high heel boots around the house!

~can be a little sassy at times!

~knows all her letters and sounds. She can count to 100 with help! :) She can write her name by herself -she makes her little "e" upside down!!

~makes up songs all day long!!

~loves her big brother so much!! She does everything exactly like him!!

Heavenly Father,
Thank you so much for Francie and the joy she brings our family! I pray that you would draw her heart near to yourself! Bless her this year, make your face to shine on her, and be gracious to her, give her your peace! I pray you would rejoice over her with gladness, and quiet her with your love! In Jesus' name, Amen!
