She's 5 Today!

Today we are celebrating our Lydia's birthday:)

It's amazing how much this little girl brightens our days. With her usually sweet disposition a perfectly dressed baby doll under one arm and a sword in the other!! Her generous servant's heart! Her playfulness and compassion on others! Independent and super sweet mixed with a little sass;)

Happy 5th Birthday, Lydia!!

Goals for her 5th year: To ride a horse.

When you ask her what she wants to be when she "grows up" she'll respond "I don't know, maybe be a wife"!

And what is the coolest thing about being 5?? She responded, "because I'm bigger than Nate!"

Here's is last years stats and questions, so they can be compared;)

Today we are celebrating simply! Maybe lunch out at a park (it's supposed to be really nice)!! Then await the arrival of grandparents:) A dinner of tacos, fruit salad, chips and salsa. And CUPCAKES... of course, picked out down to the sprinkles and liners, by Lydia!

My heart (in Scripture) for Lydia:

Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I am full of joy over you;
but I want you to be wise about what is good,
and innocent about what is evil.(Romans 16:19)
