A New Chapter...

We did it! We dropped our big girl off for her first day of school. She was sooooo excited and couldn't sleep last night. She was a little quiet when she sat down but she was smiling and happy and sweet. She gave me hugs and told us "bye". She didn't cry or act scared or do anything that would make it even harder for me to leave:)
Please pray for her today and everyday this week! We are so thankful that God has given us such an amazing little girl and we are confident that she will be a light everywhere she goes.
"Oh MAMA, you were RIGHT! French braids DO make the best curls!" - She was excited about her curly hair today:)
It is unbelievable how much sweetness can fit in this one picture! I love them so much!
THE Cutest kindergartner ever!
Cashe was pretty upset to see his big sister go... or maybe he was upset that he was not able to stay;)

Happy 5th Birthday, Belle!

Today is the big day! Belle is 5 and we couldn't be more proud of the sweet girl she is today.
She woke up and we found her laying on the couch quietly watching cartoons... she didn't even wake us up! We started with presents and I included some little cards that will let her make several choices throughout the day (5 choices). The first was breakfast and she chose:
McDonalds.

She started by marking them both because she got so excited. But hey, it's her birthday!

We love you, Belle and we are so blessed to have had the past 5 years with such a precious gift from God. Keep your sweetness and kindness and serve Him always!
