Happy Birthday, Princess!

SHE'S FIVE. Yes, I said five. We cannot believe our little girl is FIVE. There seems to be something very certain about that number . . . no more baby, no more toddler, just a big girl now. We are so proud of you, Anna Beth. You bring so much laughter and joy to our home. The way you talk in your silly voice after dinner. . . the way you dress-up in your myriad of costumes ten times a day. . . the way you are so particular about every little detail . . . the laid-back, lovin' life attitude you share with us every day. We love you, princess!
