4 Years Old

Sara turned four on August 18. It was a very exciting day for her! She had been talking about turning four for days (well, really months) and it had finally arrived. She was blessed with lots of love and nice gifts. We are so blessed to have such great family and friends. We did a small family gathering at our house. She had a Hello Kitty cake (not pictured because someone dropped the camera on the street in NYC and it works sporadically now). It was very fun and she feels loved :) She is already talking about when she will turn 5. She is still very into the princesses. She really wanted princess dolls for her birthday, the ones that are the size of barbie. She has been asking me about them since January. Whenever we go to a store, she will point them out and ask me "to keep them in mind for her birthday." She has had a lot of fun playing with the princess dolls and dressing up. I can hardly believe she is already four. She has grown up so much in a lot of ways. I am thankful that she still loves "snuggle time", reading, cuddling, and just hanging out. I'm so thankful for our Sara.

Missing Shoe

So, all week I've been looking for one of Jonas' sandals. I had gotten them out to put on him and one just disappeared. I looked everywhere. Tonight, I was emptying the recycling into the recycle bin, and what should I find? That's right one small brown sandal. I just had to laugh. Never thought of looking there. I'm glad I decided to take the not lazy route and empty the bag instead of putting the whole thing in. There is a toddler in the house - be ware :)
