Today we celebrate four years of life with you! Happy birthday, sweet girl! This last year we have learned so much more about your tender, sensitive heart. It has been so sweet to watch you grow in your understanding and love of Jesus. You constantly ask the most thought-provoking questions, like "Why does God love us?" You pray such thoughtful, heartfelt prayers that we are often moved to know such prayers can come from such a little girl. We have loved hearing your heart for others. You are so compassionate and full of love for everyone around you. We are learning how to be delicate with your tender heart, realizing that everything is very personal and intentional for you. You are very much like your Mommy in that way. We pray that we can teach you how to be flexible and allow God to orchestrate the details of your days and the ways you can share all of your love with others. We pray for you to grow more in love with Jesus every day. There will never be anything more rewarding or more fulfilling than to live every moment of every day for Him. We pray for you to be led by His Spirit, for you to serve Him and honor Him in all that you do. You are already so precious in the way that you stop when you know you should be making a better decision, and come to tell me that you don't want to keep doing the wrong thing and all the ways you can make a better choice to honor God. You are so sweet to share and include your brother and sister in all that you do. You and Elisabeth constantly tell me that you are best friends, and you and John love to pal around together and make each other laugh.
