Happy 5th Birthday Ava

 

Dear Ava,

Can you really be 5 years old? It seems like just yesterday you were a tiny baby born with a big agenda. As soon as you were mobile you learned to climb and soon had to be at the highest point of the room. I finally learned that you would have to fall to learn life's lessons.

You are often a paradox to me. You are loud and boisterous at home and quiet at school. Even when you don't use your words you always know what you want. 

Lately my favorite thing about you is your ability to be a peace maker. You often give Olivia what you would like to have because you love her. 

You are happy, loving and always fun to be with. The only times you cry or really act up is when you are hungry or tired. 

I love you my adventurous little girl!
