Happy 9th Birthday Baby Girl

Our baby turned 9 this week, I can not believe how fast the time has gone.

Baby Girl you are so precious to our family.  You bring silliness and fun to everyday.

You are an excellent little sister

and daughter.  You desire everything to be right in our family, and work hard for restoration when there is strife. You love our home more than any place you have ever been and are always ready to return to it.

You are a loving friend and care deeply for each of the friends God has blessed you with. You have the strongest will I have ever met and can not wait to see how God uses it in your future.  Your passion for things your love is know by all around you.  No dream is too big for you, you have God sized dreams and know that mountains can be moved.  You love all of God’s creatures and desire to help them all.  The horse is still by far your favorite.  “This phase” your dad and I were sure you would grow out of has only grown.  Your room is currently covered in pictures of horses and plastic toy horses.

Even though this was not a horse party, you still found a way to incorporate them.

Your friends know you well and gave you lots of horse gifts.

The poor horses tail caught on fire as we sang to you.

Lucky for us, it went out as quickly as it caught on fire.

You loved your party, playing with friends, and each of your gifts but what you haven’t stopped talking about is this saddle.

It is a beautiful western saddle that daddy is going to make into a stool for you room.

I know you wish it came with a horse,

but that will have to wait for now.

See you can not even take your eyes off of the saddle to have your picture taken.

We love you baby girl and are so proud of the lady you are becoming.

Love,

Mommy and Daddy
