happy FOURTH birthday, eleanor!

i thank my heavenly father every day for entrusting me to be a mama to the sweet and special spirit that is eleanor. she is full of such life. such an imaginative, curious and intelligent little being who loves to ‘chit chat’ with anyone and takes such good and gentle care of her little brothers. today she turns 4 years old (FOUR!!!!) and i’m just over the moon proud of her. she is a good, brave and beautiful girl and i love her so much it hurts.

happiest 4th birthday, baby girl! you are the little one who made me a mama… and you’re kind of my guinea pig in a way (poor first born) as i try to figure out how to best be a mother and raise you up. thank you for bringing such sunshine and warmth into our family. i am nothing but proud of the little lady you are becoming. we love you eternally.
