3 Years Old





Happiest
3rd
Birthday Wishes to you
Sweet Girl...




You presence has stretched my heart beyond measure...


So many things to treasure up...


 ♥
I love how you ask me to read 
"Good Night My Ducklings" before bedtime.


I love how you call me
"Miss Hollywood!"


I love to hear you sing in the car.

 
I love the way smile sooooo big!


I love the smell of your neck.


I love how we dance our special
dance and sing our "Princess Dress" song!


I love to hear you say, "mommeeee"


I love when you sit me down after you've been at preschool and show me all your art!


I love how you take such delight in God's Creation
From the tiniest stone to the
most delicate butterfly...nothing escapes your
eye.


I love your full, round, kissable, sweet cheeks!!!


I love how you pretend to be a
"baby alien"
when we play at the park...
it is absolutely hysterical,
I don't even think you
understand what an alien is,
but boy can you pretend to be one!



You love your brother.

Cade is the first person you ask for
when you wake up!

You enjoy "doctoring" him up with your little doctor kit and giving him
L-O-T-S 
of pretend shots :)

You can even talk Cade into playing Daddy and Baby lion with you...sometimes!

You came to all of Cade's t-ball games and was first in line to hop in the car when it came time to head to the field .


I am so thankful for you Gracyn!

You are special to Mommy

 Unique among all others

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made


Today I celebrate
YOU

I pray that God will equip me to reflect HIS great love upon you each day! 

And in turn, because of this great love,
that you would be a light unto the
world,
a shining star to those around you!

I love you with all that I am,
Mommy

Tuesday TRUEism

Tragedy blows through your life like a tornado, uprooting everything, creating chaos.
You wait for the dust to settle and then you choose.
You can live in the wreckage and pretend it’s still the mansion you remember. Or you can crawl from the rubble and slowly rebuild. Because after disaster strikes, the important thing is that you move on.

Conversations with a 2 year old




Tonight we went to Cade's
baseball game.

Normally as soon as she becomes a little bored walking the bleachers, Gracyn asks to go and visit the playground!


Tonight was no exception...
she asked to go play about 20 minutes before the game was over so I walked her over to the playground and this is the conversation that ensued.

She met a little blonde haired, blue eyed boy while playing the slides. 
At first they had races down the slide to see who could go the fastest. 
Then they started racing back up the slides to the top! 

After playing silently for a few minutes the little boy {who couldn't have been over 3 years old} finally broke the silence...

Little boy - "What is your name?"

Gracie - "Gracyn"

Little boy - "Mason?"

Gracie - "No, I said GRA-cyn"

Little boy - "oh GRA-cyn"

Little boy - "what's your phone number?"

Gracyn - "i don't have a phone number!"

Little boy - "oh...okay...well mine is 1,2,3
if you ever want to call me."

I about fell off the side of the railroad ties when he asked for her digits...
but Gracyn in true form put the smack down on that action.

Gracyn you are such a hoot and full of spunky spirit!!!!!

I LOVE YOU SWEET GIRL :)
