My 4 year old!

Happy Birthday Lia!

I can't believe you are 4 years old now.  I remember thinking there was a huge difference from 2 to 3 years and now I have the same feeling- there's a huge difference from 3 to 4 years.  You are becoming your own individual in this world.  You are fiercely independent, silly and sweet.  You are strong willed, determined, a go-getter, a manager, an executive, a theatrical drama Queen (ha)! 

You like to try new things.  You like to make your brother giggle.  You like art, music, dressing up, taking care of baby dolls, walking Monkey.  You can draw little people.  You love to cut paper!  You can write your name and Mom and Dad.  You like to 'work' in the garden, picking peas and weeding.  You like to get dirty.  You do not like bugs.  You don't like being hot (just like your Dad).  You like to have picnics and cook in the kitchen.  You love going swimming.  You are now brave enough to put your head under water.  You like fishing.  You love ice cream.  I think Dad is your favorite person right now.  You like school.  You love books!

You are wild, spontaneous, fun, smart, sensitive.  You make me laugh.  You are an amazing individual.  You are going to do great things in this world.  You are my big girl!
