i know, all the moms and dads say it. they warn you when you have kids it flies by, and that has happened…

this sweet baby is 5 today.

breaks
my
heart

what a perfect piece to complete the puzzle of our squad. she is a little piece of everyone wrapped into her crazy self and i don’t even remember life before her.

this here was my favorite picture:

so for today, as you can imagine i am super grateful for this sweet gal and all the joy she has brought to my life and i am sure a few others too. 
super
super 
grateful

for her love of her sisters and brother
for her kindness
she is a good listener (at school)
her raspy party girl voice
her fierce competitive attitude
her determination
her sweet sweet snuggles at night
and her dragon breath in the morning. 

there is so much to be grateful for with my mae mae liz. 

 i miss those sweet little feet!
